Hi,
I am searching for an information and I realize that I have no idea where to ask to get the best answer.
I am looking for a technology that would allow me to track the 3d position of very tiny markers with a very high precision.
I don't know what technology could fulfill my needs, but I am searching for both the marker technology and the tracking technology.
The use would be for complex medical surgery operations.
I heard about RFID chips that can be as thin as a rice pebble, and wireless, but i don't know how i could track their position accurately. I also don't know who could provide me with such a custom hardware, nor the price of those markers. I need to get some help on this, and hope you could help me, or lead me to someone who could, or to a more appropriate forum if this one is not the one I am looking for =)
This is a list of the specifications I need for my markers:
the markers have to be
- wireless
- self/wirelessly powered (like RFID tags for instance)
- very tiny (~1-3mm)
- relatively cost efficient (?)
the tracker must be:
- capable of covering a small area like the head of the patient, or the abdominal cavity
- capable of tracking with a very high precision (max 1mm precision loss) the position of the markers in 3D
I hope you can help me!
