Abstract
A location based dynamic information provision system integrates operator positional awareness within a laboratory environment with a laboratory environment asset site map. At least one operator proximity metric, defining a distance threshold for establishing whether an operator within the laboratory is proximate to a respective asset, is defined for each asset. Operator detection and position is provided by an indoor positioning system. A signaling device associated with each operator is in communication with a laboratory process management platform for receiving operator information contingent upon the respective operator being within the proximity metric for a respective laboratory asset and the asset having communicated status of a given urgency to the process management platform. The signaling device may enable the operator to communicate with the process management platform and may provide a tactile or other attention attracting signal to the operator.
