Motes are powered by batteries and consist of a small processor, flash memory and IEEE 802.15.4-compliant wireless radio. Every mote, which can be utilized without radio-frequency identification equipment, automatically broadcasts a time-stamped identity packet to other motes in such a way that does not interfere to medical devices. The motes allow various data to be collected, including identifiers of the mote, time messages are received and so on.
