omlox hub API
The omlox hub API providing unified, real-time location data from multiple tracking technologies via a central hub.
Description
The omlox hub API is a standardized interface that enables applications to access unified, real-time location data across multiple tracking technologies and vendors.
Key features:
- Unified data access: Aggregates and standardizes location data from multiple technologies (for example, UWB, RFID, GPS, BLE) into a single format.
- Real-time tracking: Provides continuous updates on object positions, movements, and status changes.
- Technology abstraction: Decouples applications from underlying hardware, enabling seamless interoperability across vendors.
- Geospatial mapping: Transforms local coordinates into global coordinate systems for consistent positioning.
- Event handling: Supports events such as geofence entry/exit, collisions, and motion detection.
- Flexible integration: Offers REST and WebSocket interfaces for both request-based and real-time streaming scenarios.
- Open standard: Based on an open specification, allowing vendor-independent implementations and integrations.
Main endpoints:
- Zone endpoint: Defines physical areas (for example, buildings, floors) and manages coordinate transformations.
- Trackables endpoint: Provides access to tracked objects, including their current position and status.
- Location provider endpoint: Integrates and manages data sources such as sensors, tags, and positioning systems.
- Events endpoint: Streams real-time events like movement, geofence crossings, and proximity alerts.
- Data streaming: Enables live location updates via WebSocket connections for real-time applications.
- Configuration endpoint: Supports setup and management of zones, providers, and system parameters.
With its standardized architecture and multi-technology support, the omlox hub API enables seamless integration of location-based services in Industry 4.0 environments.
