PTFPing the Floor

How it works

Four steps from tagged assets to full floor visibility. No complex integrations, no cloud dependencies, no recurring scan-gun labor.

01

Tag your assets

Attach a passive UHF RFID tag to each asset you want to track. Tags are thin, durable stickers or hard-mount enclosures — no batteries, no charging, no maintenance. They last the lifetime of the asset.

  • Passive UHF tags — no battery, no maintenance
  • Adhesive labels for boxes, bins, pallets, and flat surfaces
  • Hard-mount tags for metal equipment, tools, and fixtures
  • Each tag carries a unique ID linked to your asset record
02

Deploy readers at key zones

Mount readers at doorways, shelves, staging areas, or anywhere you need visibility. Each reader continuously scans its zone and reports every tag it sees — no manual trigger needed.

  • Readers auto-detect tags within range (up to 30+ feet)
  • Compact form factor — ceiling, wall, or shelf mount
  • Wired (Ethernet/USB) or wireless (WiFi) connectivity
  • Multiple reader types supported — pick what fits your space
03

Connect to the hub

Readers report to a central hub that runs on your network. The hub processes tag reads, tracks presence, detects movements between zones, and logs every event.

  • Runs on your local network — your data stays yours
  • Automatic reader discovery and registration
  • Presence engine with configurable timeouts and thresholds
  • Movement detection: arrival, departure, zone transfer
04

See everything on the dashboard

Open the dashboard from any browser. See every tagged asset, where it is right now, and where it's been. Get alerts, run reports, and export data.

  • Real-time zone map with live tag counts
  • Asset search by name, tag ID, or zone
  • Movement history timeline for any asset
  • Alerts for missing items, unauthorized movements, and dwell time

Under the hood

Built on proven UHF RFID technology with modern, lightweight software that runs on your network.

UHF RFID (860–960 MHz)

Long-range passive tags that can be read through cardboard, plastic, and fabric without line of sight. Hundreds of tags read per second.

Edge readers

ESP32 and Raspberry Pi based readers with R200 and UHFReader18 modules. Low cost, low power, high reliability.

WebSocket hub

A central server that receives tag data from all readers in real time. Processes presence logic, stores events, and pushes updates to dashboards.

Web dashboard

Works in any browser — desktop, tablet, or phone. No app to install. Real-time updates via WebSocket connection.
