Compatible with Zebra MotionWorks and 3rd party location solutions
Zebra MotionWorks™ location solutions give businesses the ability to use automated data collection to
attain actionable insights and vital solutions from the location, state and sense data of tagged enterprise
resources. By using hardware to capture data (including Zebra’s many sensing, tagging, and mobility
technologies, as well as popular third-party technologies), MotionWorks deploys some of the world’s
largest and most successful automated resource tracking and management solutions— across industries,
and for some the world’s largest companies.
Zebra’s MotionWorks solutions have been optimized for operation with Zebra Bluetooth Beacons,
but these beacons will also work with third-party solutions that follow the Bluetooth® low energy
specification. They are also compatible with legacy Mpact server based solutions.
Development and Configuration Tools
Zebra has a software development kit (SDK) to help customers and partners create location solutions
based on Zebra Bluetooth Beacons, and to enable easy integration of Zebra Bluetooth Beacons with
the location features of iOS and Android smart phones as well as Zebra’s portfolio of ruggedized mobile
computing devices. The SDK has the library, driver and application programming interface (API) that can
form the foundation supporting custom application development. Additionally, Zebra provides a toolbox
application to simplify the staging and configuration of beacons. This application allows the selection of
transmit power, transmitter interval, and other operating parameters. Configuration and beacon firmware
updates are performed over-the-air without a physical connection with the beacon.
