Description
Summary:Two infants are bathed and each accidentally returned to the incorrect bassinet. A mother picks up her child according to the bassinet label, \JnaWare that a swap has taken place. This problem will eventually happen if there is no proper method to identify the baby. Maternity wards are handling more and more births. Keeping track of the growing number of babies has become challenging for even the most modem hospitals. The main objective of this project is to develop a RFID Infant Protection System prototype to prevent infant abductions and inadvertent child mismatching. The system should be able to protect against mismatching events by affixing matching RFID tags to mother and child. If the mother is given the wrong child, tlie RFID tag detects tlie mismatch and activates an audible alarm. The advantage of RFID over other teclrnologies like bar code will be stressed out by the author in this report. The author will detail the method approached to carry this project up until it become successful.
