KNOT Bluetooth Tracking Examples

Sat Feb 26, 2022 9:58 pm

Hi Guys

Can anyone reply with testing the Bluetooth Tracking on with a KNOT?

I have a scenario of tracking pallets over a large area with mutable buildings both indoor and outdoor.

The customer would like to know where the pallets are both indoors and outdoors.

I understand it will require a load of KNOT's. Each building entrance, middle and end of building depending on the size.

Was thinking if a KNOT was installed on the forklift with GPS, can GPS data be attached to the Bluetooth data so the customer can search for Pallet location?

If anyone can upload a video of the basic setup of the MikroTik KNOT right thought to displaying on the web, this would be of great assistance to us around the world :)

This is kind of what I made for Home Assistant, except that I assume that the KNOTs are stationary and the tags are moving, so when the tags are out of range I clear the position, while In the forklift case, the position should be updated as long as the tag is in range, and be retained rather than cleared when the tag is out of range.

It should be fairly easy to implement a proof of concept based on something like owntracks. I did this a while back for MikroTiks with GPS, but did not consider tags. If you are interested I can set up a Github repository with the Owntracks script. I have no intentions if implementing Bluetooth Tag support in this script at the moment.
