Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is a variant of Bluetooth designed for low-power, high-accuracy data transmission—perfect for real-time location systems. Volan’s BLE solution is purpose-built for large enterprise environments requiring continuous asset and personnel tracking. It allows businesses to unlock automation and data-driven insights across facilities without draining battery life or IT resources. BLE is the technology backbone that makes Volan’s platform both powerful and efficient. Read our Volan blog posts below to learn more.
Bluetooth Low Energy differs from its parent technology because it remains dormant until a connection is initiated. Where Bluetooth is best suited for a constant exchange of larger amounts of data, Bluetooth Low Energy excels at exchanging smaller amounts of data over a much longer period of time. Bluetooth Low Energy uses a reduced amount of power through faster connection times than traditional Bluetooth devices, reducing connections from 100mS to 6mS.
