Boston Children’s is ranked the #1 children’s hospital in the U.S.A by U.S. News and World Report.
Develop a technological solution for live updates on physicians next appointment and dynamical rescheduling. Obtain physicians accurate positions within the constraints of a hospital, and present their location back to the patients, so they know which room to go.
Nowadays, it might seem easy to triangulate geo positions of people or places, but everything changes as soon as walls get into the equation. That was Glazed challenge for this project – obtain physicians accurate positions within the constraints of a hospital, and present their location back to the patients, so they know which room to go.
• Used iBeacons connecting to a native iOS application through Bluetooth to track the location of physicians within the hospital. • Used the software provided by Beacinsight to manipulate the data and create models that would then be fed back to models through TensorFlow. • Built a machine learning model that predicts the location of physicians based on their past movements. • Integrated the machine learning model with the hospital's scheduling system to provide live updates on physicians' availability. • Propose the optimal placement and number of beacons to cover a specific area. • Surveyed a beacon coverage area for use in location determination algorithms. • Used machine learning to improve these location determination algorithms. • Combined business processes with the real-time position of users.
