Publication number: 20220206105Abstract: Systems and methods for tracking a subject using radio-frequency identification (RFID). In an embodiment, an antenna array comprising a plurality of articulating brackets and a plurality of antennas is provided. Each of the articulating brackets is configured to move one of the plurality of antennas into a plurality of positions, and each of the antennas is configured to receive a RFID signal. In addition, a processor receives RFID data based on RFID signals received by the antennas of the antenna array, and determines a trajectory of a subject based on the RFID data. Based on the determined trajectory of the subject, the processor controls one or more of the articulating brackets to move one or more of the antennas into a position to track the subject.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 17, 2022Publication date: June 30, 2022Inventors: Chetan Shantilal KARANI, Luke Christopher WAIDMANN, Walker Edward BOLGER-KUMM, Ronan WISDOM
