Radio frequency identification (rfid) matrix membrane for rfid-based motion tracking systems and methods thereof

A radio frequency identification (RFID)-based motion tracking method for providing medical device feedback during simulation, the RFID-based motion tracking method comprising:

• receiving, at an application (app) installed on a memory of a computing device, RFID signal data and X-Y coordinate data from at least a portion of a plurality of passive RFID transponders,
• wherein the RFID signal data and the X-Y coordinate data is detected by an RFID reader of a medical device simulator,
• wherein the plurality of passive RFID transponders form part of an RFID matrix membrane and are configured to be positioned proximate to at least one human body portion,
• wherein each of the RFID transponders has an X-position and a Y-position relative to the RFID matrix membrane;
• and
• analyzing, by the app, the RFID signal data and the X-Y coordinate data to determine a position of the medical device simulator relative to the at least one human body portion.

A tangible, non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions for providing medical device feedback during simulation, that when executed by one or more processors cause the one or more processors to:

• receive, at an application (app) installed on a memory of a computing device, RFID signal data and X-Y coordinate data from at least a portion of a plurality of passive RFID transponders,
• wherein the RFID signal data and the X-Y coordinate data is detected by an RFID reader of a medical device simulator,
• wherein the plurality of passive RFID transponders form part of an RFID matrix membrane and are configured to be positioned proximate to at least one human body portion,
• wherein each of the RFID transponders has an X-position and a Y-position relative to the RFID matrix membrane;
• and
• analyze, by the app, the RFID signal data and the X-Y coordinate data to determine a position of the medical device simulator relative to the at least one human body portion.
