Proxense® brings powerful opportunities to organizations looking to improve their healthcare IT. Developed from cutting-edge research by some of the best wireless engineers in the world, our network technology represents significant advances we call true proximity technology, or TruProx™.
TruProx™ powers ProxNET™ and every other Proxense® device–smart badges, asset tags, ID cards. It’s a game-changing technology resulting from over five years of development by some of the best wireless engineers on the planet.
How is it different?
Changing what the word “proximity” means. With TruProx, proximity means a form of interaction or a transaction triggered only by proximity to a given area, and not requiring any direct input or action. This philosophy drives our entire product line.
Until now, “proximity” has typically meant two devices identifying each other when held one to two centimeters apart. Taking this further, TruProx™ makes such wireless interactions two-way, using tiny, extremely power-efficient, flexible and intelligent devices. The field of recognition may be an inch or the space of an exam room. And our PROX™ smart devices go far beyond RFID, NFC, or the barcode, the first-generation “Walkmans” of proximity technology. Each unit contains a CPU, secure memory, and miniature operating system.
Automating the process of detecting, authenticating and gathering information. Our technology is comprised of small mobile devices called PROX™ (carried by individuals or attached to equipment/assets) and stationary sensors (attached to PCs or mounted on ceilings) which automatically gather, validate, and report information every few seconds on who’s who, the location and status of equipment, temperatures—whatever you need to know.
Security that exceeds HIPAA standards. The entire Proxense system is shielded by patented, two-way wireless encryption and multiple forms of authentication, including biometric confirmation of PROX™ holders, for the highest level of data security.
