Beacons can be used to detect if things or people are in a zone by either putting beacons on the moving things or having the beacons static in a zone.<\/p>\n

For the beacons on things\/people approach, a gateway<\/a> or other scanning device looks for beacons in the vicinity and triggers actions. For the static beacons case, an app on peoples’ phone can detect beacon(s) in a zone and trigger actions.<\/p>\n

We have some new beacons in stock that now provide a third way<\/strong> of detecting proximity. They use IR and PIR to detect the proximity of any item coming within range. For IR that’s <50cm and for PIR < 5m. These beacons transmit the current state via Bluetooth that can be picked up by an app or gateway<\/a>.<\/p>\n
