This invention describes a mobile application designed to help people navigate both inside and outside buildings like malls or stores. It works by using radio frequency (RF) beacons placed at known locations to pinpoint a user's mobile phone. Based on the phone's location and the user's stored preferences, the app then displays personalized information and provides navigation guidance directly on the phone's screen, often overlaid on a map or floor plan.
Why it matters: Filed before Bluetooth Low Energy beacons were widespread. Modern smartphones and mature app ecosystems simplify implementation.
