System and method for performing object association at a tradeshow using a location tracking system

In a location system, said location system including a network with an electronic device and a network connected element interfaced thereto, said network connected element including at least one signaling component capable of transmitting signals, and at least one receiving component capable of receiving signals, a method, comprising the steps of:

• providing an object identifier attached to a person, said object identifier being a device having at least one transceiver, said transceiver generating a signal with a unique identifier, said signal received by said network connected element;
• transmitting a second signal from said network connected element to said electronic device, said second signal incorporating said signal from said object identifier;
• calculating programmatically the location of said object identifier and said person to which it is attached using said unique identifier and the location of said network connected element;
• and
• recording associations in a database interfaced with said network, said associations being the interaction of said person with at least one of another person, object, exhibit and a location, said interaction occurring when the calculated location of said person is within a defined distance of at least one of another person, object, exhibit and a location

In a location system, said location system including a network with an electronic device and a network connected element interfaced thereto, said network connected element including at least one signaling component capable of transmitting signals, and at least one receiving component capable of receiving signals, a medium holding computer-executable steps for a method, said method comprising the steps of:

• providing an object identifier attached to a person, said object identifier being a device having at least one transceiver, said transceiver generating a signal with a unique identifier, said signal received by said network connected element;
• transmitting a second signal from said network connected element to said electronic device, said second signal incorporating said signal from said object identifier;
• calculating programmatically the location of said object identifier and said person to which it is attached using said unique identifier and the location of said network connected element;
• and
• recording associations in a database interfaced with said network, said associations being the interaction of said person with at least one of another person, object, exhibit and a location, said interaction occurring when the calculated location of said person is within a defined distance of at least one of another person, object, exhibit and a location.
