BLE-Based Custom Devices for Indoor Positioning in Ambient Assisted Living Systems: Design and Prototyping.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This work presents the design and prototyping of two reconfigurable BLE-based devices developed to overcome the limitations of commercial platforms in terms of configurability, data transparency, and energy efficiency. The first is a wearable smart wristband integrating inertial and biometric sensors, while the second is a configurable beacon (ASIA Beacon) able to dynamically adjust key transmission parameters such as channel selection and power level. Both devices were engineered with energy-aware components, OTA update support, and flexible 3D-printed enclosures optimized for residential environments. The firmware, developed under Zephyr RTOS, exposes data through standardized interfaces (GATT, MQTT), facilitating their integration into IoT architectures and research-oriented testbeds. Initial experiments carried out in an anechoic chamber demonstrated improved RSSI stability, extended autonomy (up to 4 months for beacons and 3 weeks for the wristband), and reliable real-time data exchange. These results highlight the feasibility and potential of the proposed devices for future deployment in ambient assisted living environments, while the focus of this work remains on the hardware and software development process and its validation.
