Abstract

The present disclosure provides a system for locating objects. The system includes a set of passive tags such that each tag is being exclusively associated with each object. The system further employs an identification module and a mobile device. Configuration of the identification module allows communication between the module and the passive tags. Further, the mobile device selectively and/or continuously processes the communication between the identification module and the passive tags.
