    Application of RFID and IoT technology into specimen logistic system in the healthcare sector
    (2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Thwe Chit, M.M; Srisiri, W.; Siritantikorn, A.; Kongruttanachok, N.; Benjapolakul, W.
    The invention and innovation of RFID technology changed the world and many sectors (such as logistics, railways, healthcare, and so on) are now deployed with RFID technology instead of using barcode systems. With the numerous advantages, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) got many expectations in the healthcare sector. The main objective of this research work is to implement the RFID technology in Specimen collection in the healthcare sector and the IoT (Internet of Things) network supports the transaction while the specimen test box is being delivered. The system uses a Sparkfun RFID reader to read/write patient information to the Gen2 RFID tag, which is attached to the test tube collected from the patients. When the test box is delivered to another laboratory, we develop an IoT network to know the box’s temperature, humidity, and GPS location instantly, with the help of an NB-IoT shield. The major advantage of the combination between IoT technology and RFID is that the management of test box overall condition becomes much easier. To summarize, this method is highly competent in identifying the location of medical devices in real-time and reduces the time-consuming of data logging than the barcode system.
