Your Equipment Already Talks. Nobody Is Listening in One Place
Your PLCs, sensors, RTLS tags, and warehouse systems all generate data. Sandhed connects to all of them through a unified pipeline and brings everything onto one floor plan.
Where Things Break Down
Your factory runs on a patchwork of systems. PLCs speak OPC UA. Position tags use MQTT. Environmental sensors have their own gateway. Your warehouse system has a REST API. Each vendor has its own dashboard, its own coordinate system, its own data format. Getting a single picture of your facility means opening five tabs, mentally overlaying the information, and hoping the timestamps line up. When you add a new sensor type or swap an RTLS vendor, the integration work starts from scratch.
Every data source has its own screen
Your PLC data is in SCADA. Your RTLS positions are in the vendor portal. Your environmental sensors have a web dashboard. Your warehouse data lives in the WMS. Nobody sees everything in one place because no system connects to all the others.

New integrations take months
When you add a new sensor vendor or swap your RTLS system, the integration project starts from scratch. Custom middleware, coordinate mapping, data format conversion, and testing can stretch to months before the data is usable.
3-6 months per new vendor integration
Data formats and coordinates do not match
Your UWB system reports positions in its own coordinate grid. Your RFID readers report zone IDs. Your PLCs push metric values in vendor-specific formats. Combining them requires custom transformation code for every pair of systems.
Manual coordinate mapping and data normalization for each source
What Sandhed Does Differently
Sandhed runs dedicated bridge services for each data source. MQTT-based systems like industrial telemetry, UWB positioning, BLE tracking, RFID readers, and environmental sensors connect through topic subscriptions. HTTP-based systems like heavy equipment telematics and warehouse management connect through polling at configurable intervals. Any custom source can push data through the REST API. Every bridge validates incoming data, maps vendor tag IDs to your assets, transforms coordinates to your floor plan, and pushes updates to the browser in real time. Failed messages go to a dead letter queue for retry instead of getting dropped. The result is one floor plan with every data source visible in one view.
MQTT and HTTP Bridge Services
Each data source connects through a dedicated bridge that handles the vendor protocol. MQTT bridges subscribe to vendor topics for real-time data. HTTP bridges poll external APIs at configurable intervals. Every bridge validates data with schemas and handles failures with retry queues.
Automatic Coordinate Transformation
RTLS vendors report positions in their own coordinate systems. A visual calibration wizard lets you place control points on your floor plan, compute the affine transformation, and verify accuracy with a grid overlay. Positions from any vendor display correctly on your floor plan.
Unified Tag-to-Asset Mapping
Every vendor uses different identifiers: tag IDs, serial numbers, EPC codes. Sandhed maps all of them to your internal assets through a single mapping table. When you swap tags or change vendors, you update the mapping and the data flows to the right asset.
REST API for Custom Sources
Any system that can make an HTTP POST can push metric and position data directly into Sandhed. No MQTT broker required. This covers custom edge devices, barcode scanners, manual check-ins, and any PLC that supports HTTP calls.

Common Questions
Sandhed connects to OPC UA, MQTT, Modbus TCP, and EtherNet/IP for industrial telemetry. RTLS systems connect via MQTT or REST depending on the vendor. Environmental IoT devices connect through MQTT. Warehouse and telematics systems connect through HTTP polling. Any other source can use the REST API to push data directly.
No. Sandhed connects to your existing equipment and systems. Your PLCs, RTLS anchors, sensors, and warehouse system stay in place. Sandhed reads from them through standard protocols. You do not need to change your existing infrastructure.
Each RTLS vendor has a dedicated bridge service that translates vendor-specific messages into a unified position format. A coordinate mapping wizard aligns each vendor's coordinate system with your floor plan. You can run multiple RTLS vendors in the same facility and see all positions on one floor plan.
Sandhed shows the last known state for any asset whose data source stops sending. MQTT-based bridges use persistent sessions so messages queue at the broker during outages. Failed messages are saved to a dead letter queue for retry. When the source comes back, data flows resume without manual intervention.
Yes. The REST API accepts metric and position data from any source that can make an HTTP POST request. You define the asset mapping and data format, then push data on whatever schedule your system supports. This covers custom PLCs, edge devices, barcode scanners, and third-party platforms.
