Abstract

This study proposes a straightforward and efficient intelligently remote infant monitoring system to reduce the potential risks of the theft, misuse hold and abnormal body temperature. The system can accurately recognizes the locations of newborn babies by using neural network classifiers after the active RFID readers has received different intensity of electromagnetic waves transmitted by active RFID tags. The newborn babies of temperature anomalies also can be diagnosed by the body temperature sensors and the proposed infant monitoring system. The remote infant monitoring system improved infant care and safety, reduced systems and human-based errors and enabled fast communicating with the clinical staff and families. This system can be used for infants at home or in a hospital nursery room.
