Depending on the means of transport, there are different ways of navigating samples to the correct destination:
Pneumatic tube systems are controlled with software. The nursing staff enters the destination, and the software transmits it. Thus, it is clear where the containers have to be transported. Thanks to RFID technology, the location and status of the carriers can be tracked.
Transport robots use sensors for orientation. The destination is entered via the touchscreen, and the transport robot uses mapping technology to find the shortest and safest route.
