BEAM is Embarcadero's March Cool App Winner

[Brovin Yaroslav]

Woll2Woll’s BEAM (Beacon External Advanced Mapper) is the missing feature for RAD Server’s BeaconFence technology and the March 2018 Winner of our Cool App contest. With RAD Server and BeaconFence it is easy to create an application that accurately tracks indoor location. Using the IDE map layout editor you place beacons on your floor plan, and then your app can accurately track its location through the map.

That is where Woll2Woll’s BEAM technology comes in. It makes it easy to let your end users edit and create their own maps for use with your BeaconFence app. This flexibility makes your apps so much more flexible and powerful. You can build your app around BeaconFence without concern about the specifics of the location where it will be used. Then with BEAM it can be updated to based on beacon placement and the floor plan.

Beyond BeaconFence and FireMonkey BEAM also makes use of Woll2Woll’s amazing FirePower components to round out its user interface. According to Roy Wall of Woll2Woll software, “BEAM uses RAD Studio’s FireMonkey so it is a universal application that shines in both usability and performance . . . with a common codebase it is trivial to add advanced features with a single development team.” The great thing is BEAM is available on iOS, macOS, Windows, and Android, supporting touch input as well as keyboard and mouse. It is in all the major App stores.

  

BEAM was developed by Roy Woll of Woll2Woll software. You can find more information on Woll2Woll’s website and while you are there check out some of Woll2Woll’s other great products like FirePower.
