Ambient IoT: Open (Standards) for Business

Learn why open standards like Bluetooth, GS1, 5G/6G, and Wi-Fi are key to scaling ambient IoT across supply chains.

What’s in the case study

Tha Challenges
To address the universal challenge of food waste, the grocery retailer wanted a view into how its time-and temperature-sensitive goods were transported and stored, aiming to improve its reputation for excellence by guaranteeing produce availability at peak freshness.

The Solutions
The Wiliot Intelligence Platform revolutionizes how grocery retailers monitor the temperature and location of their inventory, offering comprehensive insights down to the case level through automated, continuous monitoring and instant, actionable alerts.

How it Works

Wiliot IoT Pixels were applied to cases of strawberries, tracking their temperature and whereabouts from the distribution center, through transit, to multiple stores, providing high-resolution insights into the state of their goods.

The Outcome

The Wiliot Intelligence Platform promptly detected temperature and process compliance issues, allowing the retailer to tackle underlying problems as they arise, minimizing wasted inventory and ensuring fresher produce with more predictable availability.

The Benefits

Insights delivered by the Wiliot Intelligence Platform guaranteed that the retailer’s produce met the highest standards of freshness and quality, directly enhancing customer trust and enabling systematic elimination of food spoilage and waste causes.

Supply chains are interconnected, and no business wants to be locked into a closed, proprietary tracking system. This white paper explains how ambient IoT can connect everyday items to the internet using low-cost, battery-free IoT Pixels. It also explains why open standards are essential to scaling ambient IoT from billions of connected things to trillions. You’ll see how Wiliot builds on standards across its stack, including Bluetooth Low Energy, AES-128 encryption, GS1 serialization, and EPCIS 2.0. The paper also covers where the next standards are taking shape, through 3GPP 5G/6G and IEEE 802.11. Download it to understand the open foundation behind ambient IoT and why it gives businesses more choice, flexibility, and room to grow.
