Intrinsically safe beacon: Loc-Ex® 01

BLE beacons are small radio beacons that transmit signals at regular intervals. They can be mounted on a suitable surface or attached using the optional mounting plate, which makes it easy to replace the battery. Thanks to the Bluetooth 4.0 standard, the beacons are compatible with modern smartphones and tablets and are detected at distances of up to 200 meters. Special apps on mobile devices evaluate the radio signals to interact with users or programs. Location-based services offer numerous advantages, including indoor localization (geolocation), which is particularly useful in large buildings. They also support lone worker protection by ensuring that people in remote or dangerous work areas are monitored. The services also enable physical access control and improve security measures through guard control systems. Visitor guidance systems make it easier for visitors to find their way around. In addition, a BLE beacon can be used as a practical alternative to an NFC beacon.
