Patient tracking by UKM


This was taken from Imagine Cup finals 2006 sponsored by Microsoft. There were few team presenting their ideas, particularly from the UKM team. The RFID used was passive, not active so actual tracking was not real-time. I felt using Ekahau system would accomplish the purpose as WiFi to track patients is cheaper as compare to using RFID readers on every room. And also you can also upload the actual floor plan to the system. Plus, you can also track doctors, nurses, medical equipments, PCs, PDAs etc. you name it.
