Sewio vs Ubisense
Dva poznatija imena u ultraširokopojasnoj real-time lokaciji. Preklapaju se u fizici, a razlikuju se po filozofiji, razmjeru i cijeni. Evo kako odabrati bez vođenja prodajnog inženjera.
If you only read one paragraph
Both deliver sub-metre UWB positioning. Sewio is the lighter, developer-friendly, faster-to-deploy option that suits mid-market manufacturing and logistics and teams who want open APIs and to build their own application on top.
Ubisense is the heavyweight built for very large, process-critical deployments - most famously automotive assembly - where deep MES integration, proven scale and engineering support matter more than time-to-value or unit price.
How they compare
| Dimension | Sewio | Ubisense |
|---|---|---|
| Core technology | UWB , TDoA architecture | UWB , hybrid AoA + TDoA |
| Typical accuracy | 10-30 cm in good RF conditions | 15-30 cm; very consistent at scale |
| Software platform | RTLS Studio (Sensmap visualisation) | SmartSpace (rules, zones, process logic) |
| Integration approach | Open REST + MQTT + WebSocket; Izgradi svoj prijateljski | Enterprise connectors, deep MES /PLM integration |
| Ecosystem openness | Open tag i developer ekosustav, dobra dokumentacija | More vertically integrated, vendor-led |
| Sweet-spot deployment | Srednje velike tvornice, skladišta, od jedne do višelokacijske lokacije | Velika diskretna proizvodnja, proizvođači automobilske opreme |
| Commercial profile | Accessible, mid-market pricing | Premium; Ugovaranje poduzeća i usluge |
| Time to first value | Fast - pilots stand up quickly | Longer - engineered, governed rollouts |
Brojke su tipični stvarni rasponi, a ne maksimalni rezultati dobavljača u idealnim laboratorijskim uvjetima. Uvijek provjeri u odnosu na vlastito RF okruženje i slučaj upotrebe.
Which one fits your situation
Lean towards Sewio when…
- Želite pilota živog za tjednima, a ne za četvrtine
- Your team will build the application and wants open REST/ MQTT data
- Budžet je srednje tržište i treba vam jasna priča o ekonomiji jedinica
- Primjeri upotrebe su logistika, praćenje WIP-a ili srednje velika proizvodnja
- Cijenite iskustvo programera i samoposlužnu dokumentaciju
Lean towards Ubisense when…
- Pratite tisuće imovine kroz vrlo velike objekte
- The system must drive process logic deep in MES /PLM, not just show dots
- Radite u automobilskoj ili visokoserijskoj diskretnoj proizvodnji
- Dokazana podrška inženjeringa na razini poduzeća i dobavljača nije upitna
- Pouzdanost manja od sekunde na skali nadmašuje cijenu jedinice
What we tell clients in the room
Most buyers over-specify. If you do not genuinely need plant-wide, process-critical integration, the heavyweight platform strengths can become cost and complexity you pay for but never use - and a lighter mid-market UWB vendor will get you to value faster.
Conversely, if you are an automotive OEM trying to run line sequencing off location data, the lighter platforms will show their limits as you scale.
The honest split is about operational ambition and integration depth, not which UWB radio is "better" - at the chip level they are closer than either sales team will admit.
Questions to settle first
- Pokrenite plaćeni pilot u svom stvarnom RF okruženju – metalni, stalni i viličarski brojevi nesreće
- Točnost se navodi kao distribucija (npr. 90. percentil), a ne kao jedan najbolji mogući podatak
- Potvrdite ukupne troškove uključujući sidra, kabele, PoE, oznake, baterije i godišnji softver/podršku
- Pressure-test the integration: ask for a reference doing the exact MES / WMS handshake you need
- Razjasnite trajanje baterije i logistiku zamjene prema broju imovine
- Provjerite tko posjeduje podatke i možete li ih izvesti ako promijenite platformu
