Advanced UWB RTLS applications & implementations

Real-Time Location Systems: Precision Location

We design and deploy high-accuracy Real-Time Location Systems delivering the unprecedented location precision UWB offers. This enables precise tracking of assets to reduce search times, personnel navigation within complex sites, enforcement of virtual zones (geofencing), and detailed workflow analysis to identify bottlenecks and optimize operational flow.

Sophisticated radar & sensing

We utilize UWB's ability to perceive surroundings, implementing advanced radar functionalities. This includes reliable presence detection for automating environmental controls or triggering security alerts, detailed motion analysis for process monitoring, and even posture assessment (detecting if a worker is standing or has fallen) for proactive safety monitoring and response. UWB sensing can also be used in wellness solutions, detecting breathing or heartbeat through subtle movements.

Secure & reliable data transfer

We implement UWB for secure and fast point-to-point communication between devices. This provides a robust and reliable data transfer channel, essential for exchanging critical information with high integrity and confidentiality, particularly in environments challenging for other wireless technologies.

Integrated multi-function systems

Our deep expertise allows us to effectively combine location tracking, radar sensing, and secure data transfer into single, comprehensive UWB solutions. This synergy provides richer contextual awareness – knowing precisely who or what is where, what state they are in, and communicating this securely – maximizing efficiency and enabling complex applications.

Testimonials

“I think the key takeaway from needCode is their ability to adapt and understand the customer's requirements. That took away probably a large portion of what could have been a lot of development time and expense for both companies.”

Bob Folkestad

President at Creative Werks

“One aspect that truly sets needCode apart is its profound expertise in firmware development. Their proficiency in various programming languages, embedded systems and hardware architecture is truly impressive. When faced with difficult problems, their strong problem-solving skills and analytical mindset shine through, allowing them to overcome obstacles with remarkable ease.”

Semeh Sarhan

CEO at Xtrava

“I worked with needCode while leading the NWTN-Berlin team in 2018. A big chunk for our FW development has been outsourced to them and they had proven to iterate very quickly, following specs and deliver on time. It was great working with them. I recommend working with needCode’s team on any Embedded SW development.”

Marco Salvioli Mariani

CTO at NWTN Berlin GmbH

“needCode Team proved to be one of the best engineers I have ever met. The part I like the most about the team is the more difficult an obstacle seems to be, the more motivated they were to find a solution and a way forward.”

Szymon Słupik

CTO at Silvair

“needCode is an outstanding partner. Their quick follow-up, scalability, and extensive professional network set them apart. Their expertise in wireless technologies has been valuable, supporting us from low-level drivers to architecture discussions.”

Tim Allemeersch

Director at Qorvo, Inc.

“needCode did a great job improving the firmware of the Vai Kai connected toys and developing new features, surpassing our expectations multiple times. I would definitely recommend hiring Bartek and needCode for the embedded software projects!”
