Abstract
Apparatus for displaying information associated with a wireless location node via a user interface based upon electromagnetic radiation received from a radio target area. More specifically, the present invention relates to methods and systems for receiving electromagnetic radiation received from a radio target area, and presenting digital content in a user interactive interface.
Claims20
Apparatus for displaying information associated with a wireless location node, the apparatus comprising:
- a) an Agent supportable device supportable by an agent at a location relative to a ground plane, the Agent supportable device comprising:
- b) a memory storing a software program;
- c) a network interface enabling the Agent supportable device to communicate via a wireless data communication standard;
- d) an antenna configured to communicate with a wireless data transceiver;
- e) an ultra-wideband (UWB) transceiver in logical communication with the antenna;
- f) an energy receiver;
- g) a user interface surface;
- h) a clock;
- i) a processor in logical communication with the memory, the processor operative via execution of the software program to cause the Agent supportable device to:
- i) generate a position for a location of a node based upon wireless communication between the node and the UWB transceiver;
- ii) associate digital content stored with the position of the node;
- iii) establish a radio target area for the energy receiver, said radio target area comprising an area in a field of view of one or both of:
- a charged couple device (CCD) and a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS);
- iv) receive energy into the energy receiver from the radio target area;
- v) generate a digital representation of the energy received into the energy receiver at an instance in time;
- vi) generate a user interactive interface comprising the digital representation of the energy received into the energy receiver at the instance in time;
- vii) include in the user interactive interface a dynamic portion representative of the location of the node;
- viii) receive a user input on the user interface surface corresponding with the dynamic portion of the user interactive interface;
- and
- ix) based upon the user input received into the dynamic portion of the user interactive interface, display the digital content associated with the position of the node in the user integrative interface.
