ATR7000 RTLS Reader


ATR7000 RTLS Reader is an advanced overhead fixed RFID system that delivers real-time location of tagged items with high accuracy. It uses a phased-array antenna with intelligent beam steering to track direction and movement of assets across large warehouse or industrial areas.

ATR7000 RTLS Reader is designed to provide true real-time visibility into the location and movement of RFID-tagged items. Unlike standard fixed RFID readers, it doesn’t just detect that a tag is present — it calculates exact positioning within the monitored area.

Its wide-angle, phased-array antenna uses hundreds of electronically controlled narrow beams to cover large floor spaces and pinpoint item locations with accuracy typically within 0.6 meters. This enables operations such as tracking equipment movement, monitoring material flow, and managing warehouse inventory automatically without manual scanning.

Mounted overhead, the ATR7000 covers up to twice the area of a typical fixed reader setup — reducing installation cost and infrastructure. With PoE+ power options, a Linux-based OS, and multiple integration interfaces, it is optimized for Industry 4.0 environments and enterprise-scale tracking systems.

This solution is ideal for warehouses, production lines, fulfillment centers, and industrial facilities needing continuous, automated tracking of goods, tools, containers, and vehicles.
