Webinar: Advances in Indoor and Sensor Positioning
2025-03-27 13:00 - 15:00
Join the Webinar on Advances in Indoor and Sensor Positioning!

Date: 27.3.2025

Time: 13.00-15.00 (Finnish time)

Are you interested in indoor and sensor positioning technologies and the opportunities they offer to your business in Europe and worldwide? Welcome to Location Innovation Hub’s webinar organized together with Finnish FAIR EDIH and Nemonoor EDIH from Norway.

Indoor and sensor positioning is important because it enables accurate location in areas where GPS does not work well, such as inside buildings, tunnels and urban areas. They improve navigation, security, asset tracking and automation in industries such as healthcare, logistics, retail and smart cities. These technologies also enhance the user experience, optimise operations and support emerging applications such as augmented reality and autonomous robots.

Indoor and sensor positioning is improving with AI, sensor fusion, UWB and advanced wireless technologies such as UWB and 5G, making location tracking more precise. Challenges include signal interference, high energy consumption and a lack of standard rules across systems. Future work aims to improve accuracy, save energy and make different technologies work better together.

This webinar highlights the experiences of three Nordic EDIHs: The Location Innovation Hub, Finnish AI Region and Nemonoor Norway. We also include insights from Estonia.

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights from leading experts in the field. Join us to explore the future of indoor and sensor positioning and its impact on various industries!

We look forward to seeing you there!

Attendees will experience live demonstrations of tools that address real knowledge management challenges, moving beyond theory to practical applications.

Addressing Implementation Barriers

The programme specifically targets common concerns preventing organisations from adopting AI solutions: uncertainty about where to start, concerns over technical complexity and costs, and questions about which solutions deliver measurable business value.

Participants will gain strategic insights, see practical demonstrations, and have networking opportunities to develop clear understanding of implementation pathways.

Digiturvallisuusmessut kokoavat yhteen digiturvallisuuden asiantuntijat, organisaatiot ja yrityspäättäjät ajankohtaisten aiheiden, ratkaisujen ja tulevaisuuden näkymien äärelle. Tapahtuman keskiössä ovat kyberturvallisuus, tietosuoja ja riskienhallinta nopeasti muuttuvassa digitaalisessa toimintaympäristössä.

Messuilla on vahvasti mukana myös tekoäly (AI) ja sen vaikutus digiturvallisuuteen. Miten tekoälyä hyödynnetään turvallisuuden vahvistamisessa, uhkien ennakoinnissa ja poikkeamien tunnistamisessa – sekä millaisia uusia riskejä ja eettisiä kysymyksiä AI tuo mukanaan.

Digiturvallisuusmessut tarjoavat ajankohtaisia puheenvuoroja turvallisuusasioiden tunnetuilta nimiltä , käytännön esimerkkejä ja verkostoitumismahdollisuuksia kaikille, jotka haluavat ymmärtää, miten digiturvallisuus ja tekoäly muovaavat organisaatioiden ja yhteiskunnan tulevaisuutta.

Digiturvallisuusmessut esittelevät myös konkreettisia ratkaisuja ja palveluita yrityksille ja organisaatioille tietoturvan parantamiseen. Tapahtuma yhdistää tehokkaasti digiturvallisuuden asiantuntijat, tietoturvasta kiinnostuneet yritykset sekä kyberalan opiskelijat ja oppilaitokset.
