NFC Tracker

inViu NFC-tracker reads data from NFC-TAGs and sends that data to the ENAiKOON’s inViu server. With inViu pro plugins, like staff-tracker and tour-checker, this data can be analyzed for various purposes. Users of the NFC-capable phone can log in with a personal PIN, allowing the data to be assigned to its users. Generally used in industries with many mobile employees who always work at the same locations, such as facility management, security services, cleaning companies, drivers, health care, and infrastructure inspectors. NFC-TAGs are used in all industries for inventory and logistics management (e.g. checking deliveries during loading and unloading).

Example:
A cleaning company has many mobile employees who need to regularly empty the bins in a park.

Problem:
Some bins are often forgotten and not emptied. You do not know if and when the bins were last emptied, but you need this information to prove to your client that the work was completed.

Solution:
Attach an NFC-TAG to each bin. These tags have individual information loaded on them, such as the location of the next bin that should be emptied. In inViu pro, each NFC-TAG is assigned a specific location (geofence), so that you can forgo the use of GPS; this is helpful when the locations are inside of a building with weak GPS reception. Each employee must receive an NFC-capable mobile phone during their shift. Employees would log in with their personal PIN and read an NFC-TAG once they have completed the corresponding task. The mobile phone will then display that the tag has been read and show the information from the tag.

Evalutaion:
The unique ID number of the NFC-TAG is immediately sent to the inViu servers with a timestamp and the employee PIN. In inViu pro, you can see which employees read which tag and when. The various analysis options in inViu pro allow you to set parameters, such as the length of time to complete a job, the location, order, punctuality, and many other processes. With the tour-checker plugin, you can define a job order with fixed deadlines for different locations; an e-mail alert will be sent if one or more location-specific tasks are not completed at the scheduled time.
