Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) researchers have come up with a tracking device that could be used to monitor the spatial movement of those suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
The device, which is called the Alzheimer's real time location system, could help care-givers monitor the patients remotely in real time. “You can study the patient's behavior and take appropriate actions, for example, if he eats up to 22 times or spends too long in the toilet,” said researcher Assoc Dr Abdul Rashid Mohamed Shariff at UPM here Wednesday. Looks like active WiFi system to me.

Reading QR Code with CN50

Today, i tested reading QR code with Intermec CN50 and the pda can read 1d/2d barcodes off your laptop screen. Fantastic! Built with so many features like built-in camera, WiFi, bluetooth, long life battery. The Intermec CN50 now comes standard with 256 MB of memory, allowing for extremely quick responses, even while simultaneously using multiple applications. Aside from the memory, the CN50 will also be able to deploy the EA11 1D/2D barcode imager and the EA21 barcode imager with the Intermec eMDI software.
