项目摘要

This project involves understanding the feasibility of a self-powered network of sensing and communicating beacons/trackers that enables the location and status monitoring of assets in a hospital thus reducing lost time of healthcare professionals and enabling life-saving equipment to be easily located and usage to be optimally managed. It seeks to apply Lightricity's proven and world leading commercially available low-light indoor photovoltaic (PV) technology to wireless trackers/beacons that can be deployed in other vendor's networked systems thus providing a much-improved and scalable service to customers such as hospitals. It addresses practicality and user experience by making tracker instalment a fit-and-forget operation. It reduces costs associated with maintenance e.g. battery change. It helps healthcare system operate more efficiently locating critical equipment and monitoring status/condition of tracked items thus saving money and lives, relieving the current pressures and helping prepare for future periods of high demand. It is sustainable in the sense that it reduces workloads in overstretched public health systems and addresses power challenges with a renewable energy source thus avoiding the environmental issue of disposal of billions of batteries.

该项目涉及了解传感和通信信标/跟踪器的自供电网络的可行性，该网络能够对医院中的资产进行定位和状态监控，从而减少医疗保健专业人员的损失时间，并使救生设备易于定位和使用得到最佳管理。它旨在将Lightricity经过验证的世界领先的商用低光室内光伏（PV）技术应用于无线跟踪器/信标，这些跟踪器/信标可以部署在其他供应商的网络系统中，从而为医院等客户提供改进和可扩展的服务。它解决了实用性和用户体验，使跟踪器安装一个适合和忘记的操作。它降低了与维护相关的成本，例如更换电池。它可以帮助医疗保健系统更有效地运行，定位关键设备并监控跟踪项目的状态/状况，从而节省资金和生命，缓解当前的压力，并帮助为未来的高需求时期做好准备。它是可持续的，因为它减少了过度紧张的公共卫生系统的工作量，并通过可再生能源解决了电力挑战，从而避免了处理数十亿电池的环境问题。
