Solution ComponentsTags and Wi-Fi DevicesAeroScouts industry-leading Wi-Fi tags are small, rugged wirelessdevices that can be attached to assets or people to track theirlocation. Each tag sends a small, unique, wireless signal, allowing theAeroScout software to recognize the speci c tag and its movements. The tags have a battery life of up to four years and include advancedfeatures such as a call button, temperature and humidity sensingcapabilities, tamper sensing and motion detection. Assets can betracked either indoors or outdoors, and any Wi-Fi enabled device canbe tracked without requiring any software client installation.

In rastructureStandard Wi-Fi access points act as readers, receiving all AeroScouttag transmissions and forwarding them to a location engine which

determines accurate location. This allows hospitals to use theirexisting Wi-Fi network for their real-time visibility solutions.

AeroScout Exciters are unique choke-point detection devices, whichcause tags within a close range to send an instantaneous alert. Thisensures that hospitals can determine when an asset, sta member orpatient goes through a doorway, enters / exits a room or facility, orenters a restricted area.

MobileView So twareMobileView is AeroScouts Web-based enterprise-wide software

solution for viewing location, status and condition informationfrom any source (Wi-Fi RFID, Passive RFID, sensors, etc.). The systemincludes searching capabilities, rules-based alerts, and advancedreporting.
