Case Study: Emanate Wireless achieves clinical-grade room-level RTLS for hospitals with Silicon Labs' MG26 wireless SoC

Emanate Wireless achieves 99.9% RTLS accuracy with Silicon Labs

Emanate Wireless faced the challenge of providing hospitals with an affordable, clinical-grade real-time location service (RTLS) for tracking staff and equipment. Traditional RTLS solutions were prohibitively expensive and complex, requiring extensive infrastructure and offering inadequate accuracy, which prevented widespread adoption. Partnering with Silicon Labs and utilizing their MG26 Multiprotocol Wireless SoC, Emanate Wireless developed a new solution to overcome this.

The solution implemented was a battery-powered, AI-enabled Bluetooth system that uses doorway chokepoints and machine learning to achieve 99.9% room-level accuracy. This technology from Silicon Labs drastically reduced the infrastructure cost per room from over $1,000 to just $100, enabling scalable adoption and opening new automation opportunities for healthcare facilities of all sizes.
