Axcess International developed the system, which features personnel badges containing active RFID tags and motion sensors to detect if a worker stops moving.
Apr. 28, 2010—An oil company that asked to remain unnamed has begun installing an RFID-based “Man-Down” monitoring and locating system on an oil-drilling platform in Malaysia. The firm plans to soon begin providing badges to its dozens of high-risk workers for each shift on the platform, to track when they become inactive, possibly indicating injury. Axcess International Inc. developed the system specifically for this customer, based on its own existing DotWireless technology, but is now offering it to other oil companies, as well as those in other industries, such as mining, says Axcess’ CEO, Allan Griebenow.
