Real-time location system (RTLS) are precise positioning systems that enables user to identify, track and provide information about various objects such as equipment, tools, assets, containers, people and more, in real-time, through automatic feedback. Usually RTLS can locate and track objects or individuals, inside or an outside restricted area. Wireless RTLS tags are attached to objects, and fixed reference points receive wireless signals from the tags and detect the location. For instance, RTLS used for tracking of vehicles along the production line. RTLS incorporates location readers, sensors, application software, battery powered tags, and network infrastructure. Apart from real-time tracking in diverse business processes for increased accuracy & productivity, RTLS also offers benefits such as enhancement in safety and security of staff, effective logistic & supply chain operations, and smooth process operation.
Rise in need for asset tracking, proliferation of smartphones, growing adoption of business analytics solutions, as well as rise in awareness about the benefits of real-time location system are the major factors that drive the growth of the real-time location system market. However, operational challenges and high initial costs are expected to hinder the real-time location system market growth. On the contrary, technological advancements and blending of technologies by key vendors to offer effective RTLS applications are expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the market growth during the forecast period.
