Overview: When workers are surrounded by highly flammable, corrosive or explosive materials, serious accidents can occur. Safety and security is of paramount concern. If a disaster strikes, immediate action is required and critical information on the location of employees must be gathered in real time. While this information is sought, minutes and hours can be lost - and safety may be compromised. But the location awareness and safety solution can help. IBM's solution uses an RFID tag embedded in customized identification badges. A network of receivers throughout the site picks up the unique signal transmitted by each tag and the solution calculates the exact location of the tag at that moment.
