UWB

Ultra-Wideband delivers centimeter-accurate positioning and secure ranging for applications where precision location matters.

Overview

UWB (Ultra-Wideband) is a radio technology that measures distance with centimeter-level accuracy using time-of-flight calculations across a wide frequency spectrum. It enables precise indoor positioning, secure access control, and spatial awareness that GPS and Bluetooth can't match.

Why This Technology Matters

UWB solves positioning problems that other wireless technologies can't—delivering 10-30cm accuracy indoors where GPS doesn't work and Bluetooth is too imprecise. IEEE 802.15.4z adds security features that help mitigate relay attacks, making UWB significantly harder to spoof than traditional access methods.

Why You Need It

If your product requires precise indoor location, secure proximity-based access, or accurate device-to-device ranging, UWB provides the precision and security that Bluetooth RSSI or WiFi fingerprinting can't deliver. It's becoming standard in smartphones, enabling seamless interoperability.
