RTLS Studio - Install Guide

The RTLS Studio is a server based software available for three platforms:

  • Virtual Box - Preinstalled RTLS Studio within Virtual Box image, recommended for the start (e.g. RTLS UWB Kit, Demo, small PoC)
  • Ubuntu Server - Installation on a new native Ubuntu machine, recommended for real world installations
  • DockerInstallation within Docker, recommended for real world installations


Starting from Studio 3.2, Installation and Update bundles are no longer available on Sewio Portal and are moved under each project's myRTLS Site. 

  • Login to your myRTLS Site for the given project and go to the section Site Management → Deployment.

If you encounter any difficulties accessing your myRTLS Site, please reach out to our CX team via the Service Desk.
