Ekahau launched Wi-Fi tags called T101 that can compete with other real-time indoor location solutions (RFID and bluetooth). They mention the possible uses in people tracking (patients and caregivers in hospitals and lon, field Engineers in factories and production plants, warehouse staff, security people in enterprises, visitors and contractors on corporate campuses, elderly care) and asset/equipment tracking (Hospital mobile equipment, yard containers, warehouse pallets, warehouse lift trucks, mobile data terminals).

The Ekahau T101 Wi-Fi tag enables real-time people and asset tracking in any standard Wi-Fi network. The T101 tag can be attached to any mobile object or asset, and can be carried by people as well. The Ekahau Positioning Engine software reports the continuous location and movements of the tag within Wi-Fi coverage area both indoors and outdoors.
