New Ekahau Mobile Vision(TM) (EMV) Application Enables On-the-Go, Real-Time Location Event Response

Real-Time Location System (RTLS) end users and managers in hospitals and other settings can quickly view and respond to Ekahau Vision(TM) location-based, asset and emergency alert events and alarms via mobile devices.

RESTON, Va., March 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Ekahau Inc., the high-performance leader in Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) using Wi-Fi, announced today the availability of the Ekahau Mobile Vision(TM) (EMV) application for Ekahau Vision(TM), the company's real-time location software platform. The EMV mobile application allows users to use their mobile devices to view and respond to real-time asset and location-based events and alarms.

Ekahau's Mobile Vision(TM) application enables Ekahau Vision(TM) end users, including caregivers, to respond to staff emergency, patient safety and asset-based events with simple, one-touch commands via iOS-based personal or work mobile devices, such as the iPhone. Ekahau Vision(TM) end users can register a response to events on their mobile devices, and their responses to events are instantly recorded in the Ekahau Vision(TM) software platform, for further analysis.

In addition, RTLS managers and end users can view events and event history as it happens, on their smartphones without having to use an Ekahau Wi-Fi tag or access a web browser in order to respond to alarms, alerts and events.  Managers can also delete, cancel or acknowledge Ekahau alerts and requests via the EMV application without logging into the Ekahau Vision(TM) user interface on a desktop.

"Healthcare professionals work on the go -- they're rarely sitting at their desks," noted Mark Norris, President and CEO of Ekahau. "That's why Ekahau's Mobile Vision(TM) application ensures that our users can immediately respond to events in real-time, anytime, anywhere. Our RTLS users gain real-time workflow intelligence without lags or delays and end users can respond to events more quickly, on the go."

The Ekahau Mobile Vision(TM) mobile application for Ekahau Vision(TM) will be available to Ekahau customers from the Apple App store, in the 2(nd) quarter of 2013. Android support is expected in the 3(rd) quarter of 2013.

Ekahau is revealing the EMV mobile application for Ekahau Vision(TM) at the HIMSS 2013 Annual Conference & Exhibition, March 3-7, 2013 in New Orleans at booth #4311.  In addition to the mobile application Ekahau is demonstrating the complete Ekahau Vision(TM) software platform for Asset Tracking and Management, Staff Safety and Optimization, Patient Safety and Throughput and Environmental Monitoring and Sensing.

Ekahau is also showcasing our staff and patient location-based safety alert solution and temperature sensing solution in the HIMSS Intelligent Hospital Pavilion, at booth #8711.
