So mission number one, provide excellent guest Wi-Fi. Second mission, in-room analytics for doctors and presence. And the secondary goal to show how easy it would be to find tagged employee laptops. So showing the Mist UI, you can see we placed the APs in real rooms on the third floor. We have room one, two, three, and four, and the fifth AP is the actual Wi-Fi AP providing for the space. And we did do testing on all corners of the room in that area and had excellent Wi-Fi coverage.

So the experience we wanted to create was, you know, a doctor checking his notes before entering the room or zone, going in, closing the door, and spending some time with the patient. And for the actual testing, here are a couple of photos of where we place the tags in the room. Obviously, these would be on a doctor and or nurse's lanyard. These are my notes from how we move tags around manually. This was just to keep track of who was in what room at what time. And at some point, we started putting multiple doctors together in different rooms, and at the end, we put all the tags in room one. And this was the result, graphed via using some Google software. This would be the type of thing that we built into a report at the end of the week to show him exactly how his resources were utilized.

This is behind the covers how our system really works. We're actually looking at the specifics for a individual tag where I'm gonna walk from room one over to room two. And this last piece of video we thought was kind of interesting because when doctor White was, quote, "on break", I just took the tag out and put it on the middle table and left it there for a bit. Behind the scenes, here's the Mist API in action, and this is behind the scenes of how we created that in room report. This shows how easy and how flexible using a programmable system such as Mist is.

All Mist APs have this powerful Bluetooth directional array. So the side benefit of this, not only could you get in-room analytics, but the units providing guest Wi Fi throughout the facility will be listening and able to detect those lost laptops anywhere in the hospital. So this is a video of how we actually set things up. We use the Cradlepoint to provide network access, and we picked four rooms to deploy our Bluetooth only units. We kept them, you know, on a tabletop, but they would be installed in a ceiling in a real configuration. Walking across, you can see we used a tripod for the AP41, which is riding guest Wi-Fi.
