Using iBeacon in a Healthcare Educational Environment

Until now, the vast majority of the interest in iBeacon has been for retail and

commercial applications.

iBeacon

One reason – every iOS device since iPhone 4S and iPad 3rd Generation has the ability to be configured as a iBeacon transmitter or receiver

Estimated 240 million devices in all

But can iBeacon be useful for other applications, such as in educational environments?

(You bet it can!)

Traditional medical simulation training

Obstacles with traditional medical simulation training

Often involves expensive equipment (manikins alone can often cost $100K or more)

Simulation space often small Providing real-life environment often

limited

Imagine the possibilities

On-the-floor simulations

iBeacon, combined with virtualization learning environments, could drastically improve healthcare education and training.

Augmented Reality We’ve seen it used on a corporate level And we’ve seen its usefulness in

healthcare education But what else is there?

Everything!We’re limited only by our imaginations…
