TECHOHIO | COMPANY SPOTLIGHT
In just about any field, it’s crucial — but also challenging — to keep track of a variety of objects or people. Hospitals need to keep track of patients, caregivers, medicine and more. Retailers need to keep track of products on their shelves. Even the military needs to keep track of its weapons, equipment and people. Unfortunately, even since the advent of GPS technology, there hasn’t been a precise, reliable way of tracking the positioning of all these things — until now. Central Ohio startup Ubihere has created two methods of tracking that could revolutionize multiple industries.
“Ubitracks is an intelligent, multi-sensory, multimodal tracking tags solution that works like a Bluetooth tile,” said Executive Vice President Eric Wagner. “It’s a self-aware, self tracking tag. We were excited about the opportunities for Ubitracks because hospital systems and other potential partners want to track all of their assets, people and their movements. We also have Ubivision, which is an artificially intelligent camera system. It’s very easy to train, and can monitor and assess different situations to provide real-time analytics. Whether it’s customers interacting with products or flying a drone without GPS, Ubivision can support that.”
TechOhio first introduced you to Ubihere back in 2019, and things have changed significantly since then. Just as they were planning to bring their technology into the marketplace with a focus on health care systems, the COVID-19 pandemic hit. The company decided to pivot away from health care while hospitals were overloaded, and found an opportunity with the Department of Defense.
