Solar Bluetooth Gateway (Cat-1) Use Cases

What it Could be Used for

Hospital Asset Tracking

Collect and transmit location or status updates from BLE-enabled medical devices. Instantly verify the availability of critical equipment like CT machines or monitor drug inventory in real time.

Vehicle Tracking

Deploy on vehicles to gather engine diagnostics, mileage, and usage data from BLE sensors. Leverage Cat-1 connectivity for wide coverage, reducing fleet operating costs.

Factory Personnel Tracking

Assign BLE badges to workers in large factories or distribution centers. The gateway’s real-time scanning and data forwarding improve safety, resource allocation, and productivity.

Agricultural Equipment

Monitor farm machinery parked in remote fields. The solar-powered design eliminates frequent battery swaps, ensuring continuous oversight of tractors, harvesters, or irrigation devices.

Construction Site Inventory

Place gateways at construction sites to track material deliveries and equipment usage through BLE tags. Prevent losses, manage tools efficiently, and streamline project timelines by receiving immediate alerts for unauthorized relocations.
