MobileAsset Case Study: Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals Score Big with Wasp Barcode Technologies
University of Phoenix Stadium is home to the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals and also host to various conventions, trade shows, and concerts each year. The scoreboard production department is responsible for putting on not only the 10+ Cardinals football games each fall but they are also tasked with an additional 100-200 sports, entertainment and trade show events a year.
Nick Heller, scoreboard production assistant at the stadium, works with a crew to run the audio and video boards for all games, shows and events that take place at the stadium. To successfully run these events, Heller and the Scoreboard Production department work with large amounts of expensive production equipment, including television cameras, truss structures, speakers, and microphones.
The cost of the equipment needed to run the scoreboard show for the Arizona Cardinals football games or put on events such as the University of Phoenix graduation ceremony is extremely high. Any given day, $10,000 to $100,000 of equipment will be used depending on the event.

Real-Time Asset Tracking Drives Emergency Care Goals at Washington Hospital Center
Unprecedented Insight Enables More Informed Decisions and Better Patient Care
About Washington Hospital Center
Washington Hospital Center, with 926 beds, is the largest private hospital in the nation’s capital. It’s also now ranked first among all 57 hospitals in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan region by U.S. News & World Report, recognized for its heart surgery, endocrine disorders, geriatrics and ear, nose and throat care. The not-for-profit hospital is a member of MedStar Health system and shares a 47-acre campus with three medical facilities in Northwest Washington, D.C.
Challenge
In 1998, three years before the Sept. 11 attack on the Pentagon, Washington Hospital Center began proactively looking at how to improve patient care in the emergency room. To that end, the hospital secured a federal grant to evaluate how to design emergency medicine for the future.
When the Pentagon was hit, bringing all seriously injured patients to Washington Hospital Center, the event reinforced the commitment to enhancing every aspect of the emergency care experience. The center sought to answer, how does ER medicine need to evolve to address major events like Sept. 11, bombings or Metro system accidents?
Today, the initiative has grown into the ER One Center for Building Science, under the MedStar Institute for Innovation. Specifically, a think tank of physicians, nurses, architects, researchers and others consider how building design, from flooring to lighting, can influence healthcare.
RFID Asset Tracking System Streamlines Asset Management
This RFID asset management system, basing on 13.56MHz, integrates best asset tracking practices with RFID asset tracking tags and multi-tag RFID readers. With this RFID tracking system, assets can be secured and tracked automatically as they move throughout the areas.
RFID tags are integrated as part of this passive RFID asset tracking system. There are series of RFID asset tracking tags that are fit for different enviroment. Each DAILY’s RFID tag has a unique ID for the security of asset mangement.
To take inventory, handheld RFID reader DL8033 and fixed RFID reader DL810 is used to track the tagged assets in the RFID asset tracking system. And RFID reader DL8033 is used to receive and collect asset data while RFID reader DL810 gives the real-time monitoring and alerting to improve the security of this RFID asset tracking system.
This RFID asset tracking solution can be deployed and tracked automatically to maximize asset utilization, thus reducing error and the time of finding items.
