Surgical item managing method and surgical item managing system for smart operating room
A surgical item managing method for use in a smart operating room to manage a surgical item used during a surgical procedure is provided. The surgical item includes a flexible RFID tag. The method includes the steps of: obtaining an information about a position of the flexible RFID tag; photographing a patient to obtain a position of the patient; determining if the position of the flexible RFID tag and the position of the patient overlap, to determine if the position of the flexible RFID tag is in the body of the patient; and giving a warning when the position of the flexible RFID tag is in the body of the patient.
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags for liquid monitoring
Example embodiments relate to radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags for liquid monitoring. An example RFID tag includes an antenna configured to communicate with an RFID reader. The antenna includes a radiating plane. The antenna also includes a ground plane. The RFID tag is attachable to a container. A reactance associated with the antenna is modifiable based on a temperature and a volume of a liquid within the container and adjacent to the ground plane. The RFID tag also includes an integrated circuit that includes a memory. The integrated circuit is configured to modulate the antenna in response to an RFID signal from the RFID reader based on the reactance associated with the antenna.
Tag Element System for User Content
The Tag Element System allows users to create, upload, and share virtual content in the physical world utilizing the Tag Element System platform, “Enhanced Tag Elements”, and a smart device such as a smartphone or tablet. Any user can record a video or create other content and attach it to an Enhanced Tag Element simply by scanning or otherwise interacting with it with their smart device. The system provides a user interface to enable a user to create and upload new content upload previously stored content to the Tag Element System. Once content is uploaded, the user can share the Enhanced Tag Element with another user to allow that user to access, modify, and/or interact with the content.
Inmate compliance monitor
The disclosure relates to systems and methods for compliance monitoring in a secure facility. A method can include generating, by a mobile radio frequency identification (RFID) device, data regarding a proximate stationary RFID device of stationary RFID devices situated about a correctional facility, the mobile RFID device associated with a user, and comparing, by a server, the generated data to compliance monitoring rules that govern actions to be performed by the personnel in monitoring offender behavior, each of the compliance monitoring rules including an associated timeframe in which an action of the compliance monitoring rule is to be performed, and generating, by the server, an alert to be provided to the mobile RFID device in response to determining a time associated with a compliance monitoring action has already expired or will expire in a specified amount of time.
System, server and method for predicting adverse events
A system includes a data collection engine, a plurality of items including radio-frequency identification chips, a plurality of third party data and insight sources, a plurality of interfaces, client devices, a server and method thereof for preventing suicide. The server includes trained machine learning models, business logic and attributes of a plurality of patient events. The data collection engine sends attributes of new patient events to the server. The server can predict an adverse event risk of the new patient events based upon the attributes of the new patient events utilizing the trained machine learning models.
Methods and apparatuses for determining a position of a security tag
Aspects of the present disclosure include methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable media for receiving a magnetic signal from a magnetic signal transmitter, determining a strength of the magnetic signal at the security tag, receiving a radio frequency identification (RFID) interrogatory signal from a RFID scanner, and transmitting a RFID response signal, to the RFID scanner, indicating the strength of the magnetic signal.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING SECURE IDENTIFICATION SOLUTIONS

In an embodiment of the invention, a system for delivering security solutions is provided that includes at least one of the following: a radio frequency (RF) identification device, an identification mechanism (e.g., a card, sticker), and an RF reader.
A METHOD OF IDENTIFICATION OF A TAG ON A MOVING ITEM
A method and system for identification of an item is provided, wherein the system includes a conveyor belt, a positioning device and a reader operable to receive at least one reading at at least one first antenna from at least one tag attached to the item, the first antenna being adapted to be arranged at a read point along the conveyor belt, wherein the positioning device is configured to retrieve a first position of the item at a first time instant before the first antenna and a second position of the item at a second time instant after the first antenna, the first and second time instants defining a time window, wherein the reader is configured to extract from each reading retrieved by the first antenna a measurement (6) of the phase of the signal transmitted by the tag (5) and perform a data processing of the phase measurements whereby the identification of the item (2) is accomplished.
WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND ARTICLE INCLUDING THE SAME
A wireless communication device includes an antenna resonance circuit and a wireless IC element. The antenna resonance circuit includes a loop-shaped antenna that performs wireless communication by generating a magnetic field and series inductors connected in series to the loop-shaped antenna. The antenna resonance circuit has a resonant frequency corresponding to a carrier frequency. The wireless IC element is connected to the antenna resonance circuit and processes transmission and reception signals. An inductance value of the series inductors is larger than an inductance value of the loop-shaped antenna, and the series inductors are covered with a magnetic material.
