Attention hospital workers, do you know where your assets are? In the hustle and bustle, and extreme busyness that hospitals can see, its no wonder that there is a company implementing an asset-tracking system. The London Clinic will be using a system that will allow its staff to quickly locate the valuable equipment that is scattered about the hospitals many floors. The system will use the buildings existing WiFi network paired together with a wireless chip technology. It will triangulate a signal between wireless chips and WiFi access points scattered around the building, and locate an item within 10 feet. How’s that for making your job a bit easier? Now if only they can get this up and running to track lost keys, wallets, and lost documents on my computer!
