Ģ��TV CEO Simon Ford recently joined Steve Statler on theMr. Beacon Ambient IoT podcast to discuss how Bluetooth Low Energy is reshaping asset tracking and supply chain visibility. Watch the full conversation, or read on for the key themes.

Why Bluetooth Smart Labels Change the Shape of Asset Tracking

Asset tracking is often discussed in terms of range, infrastructure and cost. Those things matter, but they are not the whole story.

Ambient IoT in Action: Tracking Assets Without Building New Infrastructure

In a recent session for the Ambient IoT Alliance, we shared how Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) is able to support Ambient IoT use cases and what is already available today. Whilst there are a number of Ambient IoT wireless standards being explored by bodies like 3GPP, Bluetooth offers a particularly practical route and unique advantages that mean organisations can deploy Ambient IoT tracking and sensing without rolling out large amounts of new fixed physical infrastructure, or waiting for future standards.

Manifest 2026: Scaling Intelligence Across the Frontline of Supply Chains

Manifest 2026 in Las Vegas reflected a decisive shift in how supply chain visibility is discussed and deployed. The conversation has moved on from “can we get visibility?” to “can we run this, at scale, without it becoming another thing the operation has to babysit?” Across operator panels, investor sessions and hallway chats, the emphasis was on disciplined economics, deployment reality and measurable operational impact.

Ģ��TV Launches Ģ��TV Agent, Transforming Zebra Technologies’ Frontline Devices into an Autonomous Bluetooth Tracking Network

maya.ahluwalia@blecon.net (Maya Ahluwalia) — Mon, 09 Feb 2026 16:07:52 GMT

New software solution for Zebra devices instantly converts its global frontline device ecosystem into a continuous tracking network for BLE sensors and labels, without new infrastructure

Zero Infrastructure Bluetooth Tracking: Turning Your Frontline into a Visibility Network

maya.ahluwalia@blecon.net (Maya Ahluwalia) — Thu, 15 Jan 2026 11:54:16 GMT

The most significant barrier to true supply chain visibility is the capital cost of covering the entire network.

Eliminating Supply Chain Black Holes with Frontline Agents & BLE Tracking

maya.ahluwalia@blecon.net (Maya Ahluwalia) — Tue, 06 Jan 2026 10:22:54 GMT

For years, supply chain and logistics operators have accepted a persistent "black hole": the moment assets leave the warehouse, visibility vanishes. Traditional tracking often requires expensive, fixed infrastructure that simply can't follow a package every step of the way.

AI Smart Beacons for Asset Tracking Across the Supply Chain

maya.ahluwalia@blecon.net (Maya Ahluwalia) — Tue, 16 Dec 2025 17:47:27 GMT

Asset tracking has traditionally been about location. Knowing where an item was last seen, when it arrived at a facility, or when it left a depot has been enough for basic operational visibility.

BLE Cloud Connected Labels: Item-Level Visibility for Supply Chain, Logistics and Cold Chain Operations

maya.ahluwalia@blecon.net (Maya Ahluwalia) — Mon, 17 Nov 2025 16:35:26 GMT

Bluetooth Smart Labels are introducing a new way for supply-chain, logistics and cold-chain operators to understand the movement and condition of goods. At Ģ��TV, we’ve recently demonstrated this through our collaboration with Molex and InPlay, where we have brought to market a cloud-connected Bluetooth tracking Label that is infrastructure free, delivering data through Bluetooth devices already found across most operations.

Built on the same underlying principles as Bluetooth Beacons, these ultra-thin devices integrate printed electronics, non-lithium power sources and Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) radios into a flexible label that behaves like an ordinary piece of packaging, but one that can identify itself and report real-world data directly into cloud systems.
