CoreHW provides real-time location system (RTLS) evaluation kits, allowing customers to test our indoor location technology using Bluetooth® Angle of Arrival (AoA).
Our evaluation kits are intended for testing and demonstrating the system’s capabilities, building proof-of-concept projects, and evaluating our real-time locating system technology.
AoA measurement is enabled by CoreHW firmware in the tags and locators, with Ethernet connecting locators to a Windows PC running the position engine software and GUI.

The CoreHW Indoor Positioning System consists of locators (anchors), tags, a positioning engine, firmware, and a graphical user interface (GUI). Tags communicate with the locators, which are placed throughout the tracking area.
A special direction finding signal is transmitted by the tracked tag using a single antenna. The locators, with multiple antennas (an antenna array), receive the direction finding signal.
As multiple locators are utilized, the angle of arrival from various locators can be employed to determine the location of tags. The position engine then runs an algorithm that uses the data captured by each locator to determine the 3D location of tagged assets.
CoreHW’s AoA evaluation kit (CHW1010-EVKN5-1.0) enables indoor positioning accuracy testing and evaluation for developing Bluetooth AoA technology in challenging real-world environments. It includes CoreHW Gen3 locators and tags with AoA antenna array boards and IPS Main Boards for reliable performance in reflective multipath conditions.
