UWB Excels where other RTLSs fail - True real-time tracking

Time Domain Deploys PLUS in Europe

Global Customer and Partner Demand Lead to Increased Sales of Real-Time Location System (RTLS)

HUNTSVILLE, Ala.—November 10, 2009— Time Domain Corporation, the leader in ultra wideband (UWB) real-time location systems (RTLS), today announced the deployment of its Precision Location Ultra Wideband System (PLUS®) in Europe. Time Domain and its partner PinPoint Data Systems, an RTLS integrator and provider of marketing data and reports to retailers and consumer package goods manufacturers, have shipped PLUS to multiple retail locations in the United Kingdom. The system provides the most precise and real-time data available indoors on the global market today allowing European retail, manufacturing and healthcare customers to improve operational efficiency and increase sales.

“The success of pilot programs deployed in Europe earlier this year led to full shipments of PLUS just months later,” said Greg Clawson, senior vice president of worldwide sales and marketing at Time Domain. “Time Domain’s global footprint continues to expand throughout the world with major installations in Europe, South Korea, Singapore, New Zealand and Brazil that are building upon our success in the United States. Companies that have busy work environments ranging from retail stores to factories are deploying our PLUS technology to provide the most precise location data available, improving overall efficiency.”

PLUS is available throughout the European Union complying with required radio frequency spectrum and safety compliance. PLUS tags newly developed for the EU have replaceable batteries, transmit and receive capability, and can be dynamically configured with update rates up to 10 times per second and placed in sleep mode when not being used. The system has the capability to provide 24 x 7 real-time highly precise (down to inches) data on every asset in an indoor setting, including inventory, vehicles, people and more. Time Domain provides a vertical orientation EU tag that can be used for asset or people tracking, as well as a horizontal asset tracking tag. This addition to the PLUS product line features an increased range of 25 percent at the same price point as Time Domain’s original US products.

Other tracking technologies in the past have failed due to poor location accuracy, expense and lack of long lasting battery powered systems. PLUS reaches beyond the limits of other systems, such as GPS, Zigbee and Wi-Fi, with accuracy and long battery life at the lowest total cost of ownership that is unmatched in the industry. With the additions of the EU and Korea version of PLUS, Time Domain can now deploy PLUS in more than 95 percent of the world.
