8. How does swarm bee work?
swarm bee broadcasts advertisement blinks in an configurable interval
Other swarm bees who receive this blinks may …
- measure the distance
- broadcast results to everyone
Any broadcast packet contain additional information about the module like …
- Own sensor data (battery, temperature, acceleration, GPIO status)
- Alarm status
Did you know?
Each broadcast sent by a swarm bee module can be
also localized by nanotron’s TDOA system.

Today nanotron’s embedded location platform delivers location-
awareness for safety and productivity solutions across industrial and
consumer markets. The platform consists of chips, modules and
software that enable precise real-time positioning and concurrent
wireless communication. The ubiquitous proliferation of interoperable
location platforms is creating the location-aware Internet of Things.
