FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Irvine, CA — December 16, 2025

Penguin Location Services has announced a year of major product advancements and rapid global adoption as the company prepares for accelerated expansion into the healthcare RTLS market in 2026. Central to this announcement is the company’s RTLS 3.0 platform — the next evolution of real-time location technology for hospitals and healthcare facilities, defined by low total cost of ownership and AI-driven operational intelligence.

The transition from RTLS 2.0 to RTLS 3.0 represents a fundamental shift — from “connected tracking” to “intelligent, secure orchestration” — where location and sensory data are extracted to automate hospital workflows and improve enterprise safety across the facility.

Technology Breakthroughs Enabling the RTLS 3.0 Era

In 2025, Penguin’s proprietary BLE 5.1 location engine achieved significant advancements in sub-room-level accuracy, resiliency, and scalability — powering large hospital deployments in some of the world’s most demanding environments. Three core product capabilities drove these deployments:

Together, these solutions enable healthcare facilities to address safety, patient experience, and operational efficiency needs within a single integrated platform.

Replacing Legacy Healthcare RTLS Vendors

As health systems reassess long-standing RTLS deployments, Penguin is positioning as the trusted alternative to legacy vendors associated with high costs, proprietary hardware, poor scalability, and eroding customer confidence. Penguin’s RTLS 3.0 model offers:

  • Lower total cost of ownership with hardware included
  • Open, flexible BLE infrastructure
  • Fast deployment without proprietary antennas
  • AI-enhanced accuracy rivaling UWB
  • A unified platform for hospital safety, indoor navigation, and operational intelligence
“Healthcare systems are reaching a breaking point with outdated RTLS models. What they need now is intelligent hospital operations, not just dots on a map. Penguin’s RTLS 3.0 platform replaces complexity with clarity — improving healthcare staff safety, reducing patient delays, and delivering measurable ROI for hospital asset management.”

— Mohammed Smadi, CEO, Penguin Location Services
