At the same time, proximity-based RTLS solutions such as AirFinder can accurately point out areas within a 100 square foot area, making them suitable for use in cases where exact locations are not required. And Precision-based RTLS enabled it to be used for application areas such as inventory management. The price of tags for Precision-based RTLS may vary depending on the systems used, whereas for Proximity-Based RTLS, minimal infrastructure is required, so tags are much less expensive.
Further, the increasing trend of hybrid real-time location systems solutions will create opportunities for the industry. Various hybrid solutions are commercially available, each designed to address some of the issues associated with this technology-based real-time location systems. Localized RFID/RTLS could offer an alternative in areas where GPS has visibility issues without incurring the infrastructure costs associated with full-scale RTLS. The final result is a strong, simple-to-implement, and adaptable solution that provides unrivaled reliability.
Product innovations, technological advancements, and the introduction of regulatory policies have been detailed in the report to enable businesses to make more informed decisions. Furthermore, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Real-time Location Systems Market demand has been examined in the study. The report is a must-read for anyone looking to develop effective strategies and stay ahead of the curve.
However, the high cost of installation and maintenance inhibits the growth of the RTLS industry. At the time of installation, the price of real-time location systems can be very high, ranging between USD 2 and 5 million. This varies by industry and is dependent on the installation area. The cost of RTLS systems is high due to hardware, software, infrastructure, wiring, and power.
Industry Dynamics
Growth Drivers
Key companies primarily focus on the healthcare, retail, and manufacturing industries and have developed industry-specific solutions. Thus, due to the more competition in the real-time location systems market, RTLS companies are compelled to offer application-specific customized products at reasonable prices. Market participants constantly strive for innovative solutions to stay competitive. Further, asset tracking has gained traction in various industry verticals, including healthcare, defense, and manufacturing, for asset tracking. Tools, medical equipment, trailers, and containers are among the assets. As a result, a rise in military spending is anticipated to propel the growth of the global real-time location systems market.
Furthermore, the increased use of smartphones worldwide has fueled the implementation of RTLS. Real-time positioning information is used by smartphone platforms such as gaming apps, business & communication apps, health & wellness apps, and personal convenience apps. The mobile phone used for incident response and emergency management is based on RTLS technology, recognizing and tracking people's places in real-time. As a result, the rising popularity of navigation and other location-based applications on smartphones, increasing asset tracking, and the rise in the adoption of cost-effective solutions are expected to fuel the growth of the real-time location systems market.
