Raspberry Pi UWB Indoor Positioning: Read Live Coordinates in 10 Minutes

GPS drops out the moment you walk indoors. Roofs and steel beams block the signal, and Wi-Fi or Bluetooth positioning swings by several meters — nowhere near good enough for a robot, a forklift tag, or anything that needs centimeter accuracy. Here’s the short answer: wire a GrowSpace UWB Creator Kit Q1 developer tag to […]

Academic Conference Platforms Without Building a Custom App

A conference isn’t structured like a trade show. Multiple sessions run at once, split across several tracks, and speaking rooms are scattered across a building. Poster sessions need their own wayfinding on top of that. Standard event apps rarely bend into this shape, which is why so many academic societies end up commissioning a new […]

The website is built by one vendor. The booth map comes from another. Exhibitor information lives in a spreadsheet somewhere in between. One event, three separate points of contact, and every time something changes, an organizer has to notify all three by hand. GrowSpace’s exhibition wayfinding kiosk, running the same map and QR wayfinding used […]
