Central tracking mechanisms play a vital role in the formation of intelligent cities, by providing fast information sharing, taking precautionary measures and remote intervention. In our study, a centralized system that will provide central tracking of drugs, personnel and patients inside the intelligent city emergency rooms is proposed. The information obtained through the designed pilot system by using RFID (UHF, HF) and iBeacon technologies is evaluated at a central server. The emergency rooms data is shared online with related doctors, nurses and authorized personnel. The details of the hardware and software design, experimentation, results and the performance evaluation have been presented. Keywords : Emergency, Embedded System, RFID, iBeacon, NFC.
