If you are already familiar with Bluetooth Low Energy and its applications for IoT, beacons and proximity use-cases, you should think about UWB as the next-gen positioning technology. It is far more accurate, equally low power, relatively inexpensive and also easy to …

Estimote Beacons are generally optimized to run on battery power for months or years. Mirror video-beacon is the notable exception here, since it can draw the power from the TV/screen it’s connected to.

Configure Estimote Beacons to broadcast iBeacon. Every Estimote Beacon ever shipped supports the iBeacon packet. You can check if it’s enabled (and if not, enable it) via the “Estimote” app, available on the App Store.

2017年5月25日 · Last year at Estimote, we innovated a ton in the area of beacon-to-beacon communication, adding mesh networking to Estimote Beacons. Beacons could now detect each other and exchange messages. Building on top of that, we’ve added Ultra Wide Band radio to Location Beacons.

2015年1月2日 · It enables developers to map a location in just a few minutes, using only a set of Estimote Beacons and an iPhone. A map created this way can be embedded into apps and used to navigate users through a venue. When we started building it, we were experimenting with a method called trilateration.

The LTE Beacon can detect nearby assets via Bluetooth, locate itself outdoors via GPS, and report directly to Estimote Cloud via LTE-M or NB-IoT. You can program it with your own micro-app, in JavaScript, and also put your own JavaScript function in Estimote Cloud to process the data incoming from the LTE Beacon.

Estimote Beacons are really smart and can detect when a smartphone is very close to them. With Near to Connect enabled, when you’re within one meter of a beacon, it will advertise its Connectivity packet with much stronger broadcasting power and lower interval.

2017年9月13日 · Below you’ll find technical specification for Estimote Proximity Beacons, Location Beacons, Location Beacons with UWB and Stickers. If you encounter problems with customs clearance and need to provide more in-depth documentation, please contact our Community Team.

In 2018, we launched the Estimote LTE Beacon, the first beacon continuously connected to the cloud and fully programmable in JavaScript. It was designed to scan for assets tagged with BLE beacons and report their presence in the cloud.

2014年7月14日 · After connecting to a particular beacon via the Estimote app, you can now turn on two beacon Power Modes: Basic and/or Smart. Basic Power mode prolongs the life of the beacon by about 30 percent, regardless of the broadcasting …
