Abstract

A method of inventory tracking and management is described. The method may include receiving a location request for an item and determining, using three or more base stations, the location of the item. The method may also include generating, by a processing device, a map of the item's location and item information and sending the map to a user, and sending the location request to the item, where the location request causes the item or the item's container to indicate its presence.
