Current Issues

• Length of time to get blood to patient • Blood supply shortage and efficiency • Ability to re-issue/return unused blood • Wastage • Localised management disconnect between BTS

centres and hospitals • Blood center and hospitals do not have proper

ways to monitor the whole life of blood, including cold storage, transportation, information traceability and intelligent management.

Haier Solution – How it Works

• RFID technology - RFID is an acronym for “radio-frequency identification” and refers to a technology whereby digital data encoded in RFID tags or smart labels (defined below) are captured by a reader via radio waves.

• Benefits over barcode technology include the ability to include more information, difficult to counterfeit, quick and effective and identification

is not affected by conditions such as weather

• Barcode option in development as failsafe or as alternative to RFID when required

Temperature Monitoring IoT Module: the

industrial-grade Internet of Things (IoT)

module can receive and send signals, support

SIM card, Wi-Fi and common networks, to

ensure easy and reliable network access.

1. Electronic Tag

2. Intelligent Antenna 4. IoT Module

3. Intelligent Authority Management

NFC Authority Management System: to

realize authority management just by swiping

card and using electromagnetic lock

RFID Intelligent Antenna Shelf: to real-time detect

and collect the internal storage information, and

real-time take stock of the stored items.
