Abstract
Methods and apparatus for display of digital content associated with a location of a Node in a wireless communication area. A user interface is generated with a digital representation of content associated with a physical tag or other Node. The user interface includes interactive portions based upon positions in the wireless communication area. The interactive portions may be activated to display the digital content associated with the physical tag in a user interface.
Claims20
A method for interacting between wireless transmission Nodes in a wireless communication area, the method comprising the steps of:
- a) transceiving a first wireless communication between a first Node at a first position within the wireless communication area and a smart device;
- b) transceiving a second wireless communication between the first Node and a second Node at a second position within the wireless communication area;
- c) transceiving a third wireless communication between at least one of the first Node and the second Node, and a third Node located at a third position within the wireless communication area, each of the first Node, the second Node, and the third Node comprising a respective processor, digital storage and wireless transceiver;
- d) generating positional coordinates for the first Node based upon the first wireless communication, the second wireless communication, and the third wireless communication;
- e) associating digital content with the first Node;
- f) establishing a position of the smart device relative to the first Node;
- g) generating a user interactive interface comprising a digital representation of a direction of interest comprising the position of the smart device relative to the first Node;
- h) receiving a user input into a dynamic portion of the user interactive interface;
- and
- i) based upon the user input received into the dynamic portion of the user interactive interface, displaying the digital content associated with the first Node.
