5G-enabled, precise indoor positioning in a smart factory can revolutionize operations. Imagine real-time inventory tracking, ensuring materials and products are always where they should be. Geofencing enhancing security by restricting access to sensitive areas and preventing expensive tools from leaving designated workshops. Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) navigating efficiently, optimizing routes and reducing delays. Worker safety improving as location tracking helps prevent accidents by monitoring proximity to hazardous zones.

In this session, Ericsson will explore real-world examples of private cellular network factory deployments and how they deliver advantage with the positioning feature of 5G.
