Presentations will detail examples of large scale transit-yard deployments, a system installed covering maintenance and security at a leading European Airport, manufacturing production line installations in Aerospace and Automotive along with some more unusual installations in venues such as the Excel Exhibition Centre and London’s O2 arena.

In addition, Ubisense are delighted to welcome the President of the MVI Division of Industrial Tool manufacturer Atlas Copco, who have integrated the Ubisense system into their Tools Talk Tool Location System, which has already been installed in some of the world’s largest car manufacturing plants.

Ubisense solutions are also used by hundreds of research organisations across the world. A number of advanced research projects will be presented including an e.on sponsored experimental eco house by Dr Catalina Spataru, from the Department of Architecture and Built Environment at the University of Nottingham, and the recreation of a medieval coronation feast by Florian Heller from RWTH Aachen University.

The event will be held at historic Jesus College, set in the heart of Cambridge, UK. Dating from 1496, the college will form an imposing backdrop for the conference and delegates will be able to enjoy superb dining in the ornate Main Hall.
