Eforthink at CES 2026: UWB Technology for Industry and Smart Homes
LAS VEGAS — Eforthink presented its “Spatial Perception” showcase at CES 2026, bringing industrial positioning and smart home applications together. The demonstrations explored how UWB technology can help connected devices respond to their physical surroundings, extending their role beyond exchanging data.
Centimeter-level demonstrations illustrated the potential of spatial positioning for both operational visibility and more intuitive user experiences.
Industry 4.0: Material Tracking Across Factory Operations
Eforthink's industrial presentation combined UWB, GNSS, and Bluetooth in a real time location system. The multi-modal approach supports flexible production lines, safety workflows, and AI-assisted decisions within a smart factory, with each technology serving the coverage and precision needs of different areas.
A demonstration simulated industrial logistics and showed how uwb technology could track valuable materials:
- Precise movement records: The demonstration displayed continuous trajectories under simulated interference. The reported result was specific to the demonstration conditions, rather than a guarantee of zero drift at every site.
- 3D visualization: A smart factory interface synchronized location information, electronic fence alerts, and coordination between devices.
- Interference testing: Attendees used positioning tags under simulated blockage and multiple interference sources. Eforthink reported sub-10 cm accuracy in this demonstration; deployment performance requires validation against the actual environment and configuration.
The presentation connected material tracking with smart factory operations. By feeding these observations into a real time location system, teams can review movements alongside production events instead of treating location as an isolated data stream.
Eforthink's CEO described collaboration across operations as a growing source of industrial competitiveness. High-precision spatial positioning connected physical activity with digital information and helped bridge disconnected systems.
He also outlined the company's “From China for Global” strategy: bringing experience from demanding Chinese industrial deployments to international collaboration and the development of future positioning standards.
EforLink: More Responsive Smart Home Experiences
The EforLink presentation applied uwb technology to distance-triggered interactions, aiming to reduce reliance on manual app controls and voice commands. The consumer brand explored spatial positioning as an input for personalized responses within the home.
The products presented included:
- EforLink ScreenLock: Distance-based computer locking and unlocking using the relationship between a phone and computer, subject to supported devices and configuration.
- UWB Identity Presence Sensor: Identity and position awareness for configured responses, such as adjusting lighting when a registered compatible device enters.
- UWB Pet Tag: Presented for pet location information and related interactive experiences, subject to the supported tag and application configuration.
The product lead described the ambition as a home that anticipates user needs. These demonstrations presented intended interactions; supported devices and available features depend on each product's specifications.
Technical Platform and Further Information
The real time location system platform supports GNSS, RFID, BLE, and UWB integration. This provides different technology options for enterprise and consumer projects, rather than implying identical capabilities across every device.
