WG-WPS Executive Summary - Solution available in March 2008 The WG-WPS (WirelessGEST – Wireless Positioning System) is a system that explores existing Wi-Fi networks integrating real-time location services. With the WG-WPS solution from Nonius Software, an existing Wi-Fi network may be easily adapted to become a location services provider, emphasizing on people and high-valued assets location, controlling access to restricted areas, or publicizing nearby services directly on a user's PDA or Laptop. System Features: Location services; Corporate and public (Intranet/Internet) network access management; Event processing from multiple devices (Wi-Fi Tags sensors, user events from PDAs or laptops, emergency calls); Send alarms under certain conditions (unauthorized access to a restricted area, perform actions in reply to emergency requests); Advertisement or localized services to PDAs or Laptops' users; High-value asset control; Comprehensive interfaces for system configuration, management and operation; Typical error of about 3 meters (depending on the existing Wi-Fi infrastructure, radio interference or building characteristics); 2,5 D positioning (allowing location on multiple floors and buildings).
Some Benefits:
- Seamlessly integrating with exiting Wi-Fi networks allows the creation of a new service at a reduced cost;
- A location framework which helps improving operational management of people and assets;
- Improved people safety by means of real time location, and by taking action before alarms from their Wi-Fi enabled devices;
- Direct delivery of localized information services or advertisement to people accessing the Intranet or Internet using Wi-Fi enabled mobile devices;
- Access control.
