Abstract: A method and system can include: a station including a station communication unit, a station control unit, and a station storage unit; receiving transmissions of signals containing messages from beacons; detecting IDs from the messages; detecting a received strength of the signals; adding the IDs to a list; identifying one of the IDs as corresponding to an active user based on the list only having a single one of the IDs or based on a probability of the IDs being above a threshold, the active user being a user interfacing with the station; and disambiguating the IDs on the list based on the probability of the IDs being below the threshold.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for monitoring hand-washing compliance can include: detecting sensor readings; calculating movement estimations based on differences between the sensor readings; counting a number of crosses based on how often the movement estimations: are calculated above an upper threshold and are calculated below a lower threshold in consecutive movement calculations, are calculated below the lower threshold and are calculated above the upper threshold in the consecutive movement calculations, or a combination thereof; decrementing a countdown timer based on the number of crosses being above a cross-threshold; and pausing the countdown timer based on the number of crosses being below the cross-threshold.

Abstract: A hand-washing compliance system can include: a sensor mounted to a chassis, the sensor configured to detect sensor readings; a processor coupled to the chassis and connected to the sensor with a communication conduit, the processor configured to: calculate movement estimations based on differences between the sensor readings at discrete times; count a number of crosses based on how often the movement estimations: are calculated above an upper threshold and are calculated below a lower threshold in consecutive movement calculations, are calculated below the lower threshold and are calculated above the upper threshold in the consecutive movement calculations, or a combination thereof, decrement a countdown timer based on the number of crosses being above a cross-threshold, and pause the countdown timer based on the number of crosses being below the cross-threshold; and a housing mounted to the chassis enclosing the processor and at least partially enclosing the sensor.
