Emanate Launches World’s First Battery-Powered BLE Doorway Chokepoint, with 99.9% Room-Level Accuracy

RadioVision™ Platform Brings Disruptive Cost and Deployment Advantages to Hospitals Worldwide

CLEVELAND, OHIO — June 27, 2025 — Emanate Wireless today announced the official launch of its groundbreaking RadioVision™ BLE Doorway Chokepoint, the first-ever battery-powered BLE device to enable clinical-grade room-accurate (99.9%) BLE RTLS solutions for hospitals and healthcare providers. Built on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 5.1 Angle of Arrival (AoA) technology and machine learning, RadioVision™ is designed to democratize RTLS by eliminating the cost and complexity barriers that have stalled adoption across the healthcare industry.

Traditional room-accurate RTLS solutions require expensive wired infrastructure, proprietary tags, and complex installation—costing upwards of $1,500 per room. RadioVision™ changes the game. With low-cost, battery-operated sensors that mount easily in doorways and support for off-the-shelf BLE tags and devices, the system can be deployed in a fraction of the time and cost.

“RadioVision™ enables BLE-based RTLS platforms to deliver hospital-grade accuracy without the hospital-grade price tag”, said Neil Diener, CEO and co-founder of Emanate Wireless. “We saw an opportunity to eliminate the barriers that kept 75% of hospitals from adopting RTLS. With RadioVision™, you can deploy in days, track with near-perfect room-accuracy, and do it all using tags you already own.”

RadioVision™ sensors use BLE angle-of-arrival signals and trained machine learning algorithms to determine if a staff member, patient, or piece of equipment enters or exits a room—ensuring accurate, reliable data without wiring, calibration, or false room events. RadioVision™ integrates seamlessly with any BLE RTLS system, allowing BLE-based RTLS OEM partners to build room-accurate applications for workflow automation, safety alerts, asset tracking, and more.

“Legacy RTLS systems are just too expensive and too complicated. We built RadioVision™ to fix that,” said Gary Sugar, CTO and VP of Engineering at Emanate Wireless. “With battery power, no cabling, and compatibility with everyday BLE devices like phones or smartwatches, we’re enabling room-level intelligence at 10% of the traditional cost.

Key use cases include nurse call-cancel, patient–staff interaction, staff duress safety, PAR-level asset management, hand hygiene compliance—making RadioVision™ more than a tracker: it’s an enabler for clinical and operational intelligence.

Emanate’s business model focuses on OEM partnerships, licensing its hardware-software solution to RTLS vendors and other solution providers. The company has already secured its first commercial partner and is actively engaged with additional OEMs in advanced evaluations. RadioVision™ has been successfully deployed in hospital pilot environments, demonstrating room-level accuracy with sub-6 second latency. The company was also awarded an NSF SBIR grant in recognition of its innovation in BLE-based RTLS.
