Abstract
An information system for displaying virtual signage in a medical facility includes a treatment device. A visual identifier is operably coupled to the treatment device. A controller is configured to communicate with a remote device having an image sensor for sensing the visual identifier within a field of detection. The controller is configured to recognize the visual identifier sensed by the remote device, determine device information associated with the visual identifier based on a configuration of the visual identifier, retrieve the device information relating to the treatment device associated with the visual identifier from an information source, and generate a virtual image including the device information configured to be viewed via the remote device.
