Airport

With more than 8 million people flying daily, it’s no secret that airports are one of the busiest places on Earth. That’s not even taking into account the hundreds of staff members working inside the airports too. From monitoring your employees as a manager to tracking flights as a passenger and everything in-between, the need for more organization is dire.

In today’s world, the solution is literally right at our fingertips. Antikythera Technologies has shaped a game-changing solution that will reimagine the way airports operate worldwide. We use cutting-edge Bluetooth BLE technology that connects passenger’s smartphones to various strategically-placed beacons throughout the airport.

From here, travelers can navigate their way around, locate points of interest during layovers, access exciting promotions, find out how long it will take to get to their gate, and more. This way, passengers can save a mountain of time and stress – knowing whether they have time for that 5-minute coffee or not.

With the added convenience of being able to notify friends and family members as to your exact whereabouts, so they can meet you at your location, it’s a win-win all around.

Airport management scores the most, with intuitive access to real-time employee locations. What better way to optimize the internal operations and organization of your airport? What’s more, should any of your passengers require a wheelchair, your staff members can use the app on their smartphones to locate the closest one and request a real-time pick-up and help with Wheelchair assistance at all airport.

The concept is based on the same model as Uber, delivering on-demand service when and where it’s needed the most. Our technology tracks items via indoor positioning determination. If a BLE tag is attached to the item, such as a wheelchair, it can connect to the closest BLE beacon and send alerts to those who need them.

However, all of this is just the beginning. We’ve taken things one step further with the added ability to incorporate wearable devices, such as the Apple Watch, to help both travelers and staff members navigate and receive helpful alerts.This is particularly relevant for travelers whose hands are always full of multiple pieces of luggage, tickets and more. Pulling your smartphone out of your pocket is not always possible. Imagine if one glance at your wrist could tell you exactly where to go?

 

This is the reality of Antikythera Technologies.

We pride ourselves on developing concepts with the power to simplify and streamline the way the world moves; fusing passion with experience and expertise to make a difference.

Customized Indoor Airport Mapping

We can create a custom Airport map for your passengers to easily find point of interest, security check point and much more. You can also integrate the indoor airport map with your indoor navigation application.

Automotive Dealership

The day in the life of a car dealership owner or manager is no walk in the park. How many clients do you see in one singly day? How many cars and keys do you have to manage? Chance are, far too many. That’s why Antikythera Technologies has crafted an innovative line of Bluetooth BLE beacons, designed to streamline, simplify and organize your daily life.

How does it work? Simple. We strategically place a number of beacons throughout the dealerships we serve. We also equip each car, set of keys – you name it – with cutting-edge BLE tags that connect to each beacon. Your employees can also download the app to join in the action. The result? Everything is connected, and you’ll get to enjoy more peace of mind than ever before.

 

  1. Always know exactly where your cars are. You can easily login to the system to find a specific vehicle. No more keeping your clients waiting or twiddling your thumbs while one of your employees tries to find a hiding motor vehicle.
  2. If a vehicle is taken out for a test drive, or arrives back from one, you’ll know about it. The car will pass through the beacon placed at the entrance of your dealership, alerting the people who need to be alerted.
  3. Your customers also score, with the ability to download the app and browse for the car they’re searching for. They can also find their way around the dealership with ease.
  4. Speaking of your customers, they can also access exciting deals and discounts. If you offer them, they’ll find them. Simple.

Everything works via powerful indoor positioning determination. Think of the concept as something similar to Uber, delivering on-demand service where it’s needed the most. No more wasted time. No more stress. This is the future of your dealership. It’s here, and it’s here to stay. Are you ready?

Assembly line

This just in: BLE technology from Antikythera Technologies is set to disrupt and redefine manufacturing as we know it! When it comes to your assembly line, everything needs to operate line clockwork. One mishap, and everything can fall apart – especially when it comes to complex assembly lines like automobiles and other forms of transportation equipment. With Antikythera Technologies, you’ll never have to worry again. Allow us to explain.

We’ve created cutting-edge Bluetooth BLE technology that connects every stage of your assembly line with every worker. How does it work? Simple. By installing strategically-placed BLE beacons throughout your assembly line, your workers can stay in-the-loop with every little thing that happens along the way.

  1. The assembly line manager can view every stage of the line at a glance, accessing key data and insights.
  2. When equipment arrives or leaves, the people who need to know about it will know about it. Provided the vehicle is equipped with a BLE tag, it can connect to the nearest beacon to send updates.
  3. When a load is ready to move to its next location, your staff will be alerted, enjoying convenient updates too.

At the end of the day, countless components are needed to keep an assembly line alive and kicking. With such powerful BLE technology by your side, you’ll never have to worry about unanticipated hiccups again. Everything works via powerful indoor positioning determination. You’ll be able to enjoy faster assembly processes, less labor, and minimal time wasted. The concept is very similar to something like Uber, delivering on-demand guidance and support where and when it’s needed the most – in this case, your assembly line. No more wasted time. No more stress.

Hospital

Hospitals and large clinics save lives every day. However, the logistics and management of internal resources can make it challenging for staff members and doctors to do what they do best – what with multiple departments on hundreds of thousands of square meters of space.

When releasing a patient, one of the most important things is to be able to locate a wheelchair without delay. If the patient is in pain or struggles to walk alone, this is all the more important. You need access to staff members for assistance, as well as an ETA so you can let your patient know how long they can expect to wait.

This is just an example of the countless pieces of hospital equipment that are needed at any given moment. What if you could track your expensive hospital equipment – from beds to ECG heart monitors, wheelchairs and beyond? This is the reality provided by Antikythera Technologies. We specialize in advanced technology solutions that simplify and streamline the activities of hospitals and clinics.

Our cutting-edge technology tracks medical equipment by indoor position determination. Let’s say a piece of equipment is not meant to leave a certain area. If it does, a message will be triggered, and people of importance will be alerted. Every employee will be granted access to the location of the equipment through our app or desktop application. You can use your smartphone or tablet to access a crystal-clear 2D or even 3D map for intuitive indoor navigation.

How is this possible? Through advanced BLE tags. These are battery-operated hardware components that you can attach to every piece of medical equipment that you wish to track. Along with strategically-placed BLE beacons throughout the building, you’ll never have to worry about missing medical equipment again. No more guessing games. Everything works with Bluetooth technology. Each tag receives a Bluetooth signal, going on to send the data received to the indoor navigation system. From here, the equipment’s position is quickly calculated, and the data is sent to all employees for viewing at a glance.

This is just the beginning. You can also use the BLE tags and beacons to track and monitor the whereabouts of employees, visitors and patients. With an estimated battery life of more than a year, you can finally focus on what matters most, providing world-class medical care, knowing that the finer details are always fully taken care of – thanks to Antikythera Technologies.

LAX first to apply BLE for wheelchair tracking

APS worked with software developer Antikythera Technologies ®, Beverly Hills, to build the system’s smartphone app. Over 86 beacons are deployed throughout TBIT as part of an initial network rollout. APS’ entire wheelchair fleet can be tracked during any given work shift.
