In addition to location data, the Quuppa Intelligent Locating System™ can be used as a Data Gateway for a huge variety of Bluetooth® enabled sensors and devices.
Whether you are interested in environmental qualities, such as temperature, humidity, pressure or CO2 levels, or want to detect open doors and windows, or want to measure the vibration of machinery or the heartbeat of patients, all this data can be collected with the same infrastructure and exposed through the same Quuppa API where you get your Location data.
We are constantly testing new sensors and the verified devices have their pre-defined filters available in the Quuppa Site Planner.
Have a sensor you’d like to include? Contact us now and let’s get it done!

No. But it can be.
As long as we are able to create a filter to capture the BLE packets the device transmit, there is no problem if the device also communicates with other protocol between the BLE packets.
Yes. Positioning requires that the device sends Quuppa Direction Finding Packets as specified in the Quuppa Tag Emulation.
For time being, verification is free of charge for device vendors.
Contact the sensor vendor and request the datasheet that contains the structure of the BLE packets the device broadcasts and send it to us for review. You could also ask about the vendor/manufacturer’s interest to get their device verified by Quuppa and ask them to contact us for shipping the required samples.
The Gateway feature supports standard BLE channels. Proprietary channels can be used to send DF packets interleaving the BLE packets, but this is up to the firmware developer.
Currently there is no option to add a sensor as stationary device.
No, with the Focusing Locator, you can only configure tags running Quuppa Tag FW/library.
The sensor manufacturer may implement support for using QPE APIs and Back Channel to send commands to the sensor device. Specifications for implementing such support can be found in the Quuppa Customer Portal by the name Quuppa Tag Back Channel using Bluetooth Wireless Technology.
Yes, but only if it is sending Quuppa DF packets.
