Abstract
In one embodiment, a method comprises determining, by a first access network computing node at a venue, a position of a person based on an image of the person captured with at least one camera at the venue; controlling rendering, by the first access network computing node, of an icon moving toward a destination in response to a determined movement of the person; and handing-off, by the first access network computing node, the controlling rendering of the icon to a second access network computing node in response to the position of the person moving from a first domain zone associated with the first access network computing node to a second domain zone associated with the second access network computing node.
Claims27
A method comprising:
- determining, by a first access network computing node at a venue, a position of a person based on an image of the person captured with at least one camera at the venue;
- controlling rendering, by the first access network computing node, of an icon moving toward a destination in response to a determined movement of the person;
- and
- handing-off, by the first access network computing node, the controlling rendering of the icon to a second access network computing node in response to the position of the person moving from a first domain zone associated with the first access network computing node to a second domain zone associated with the second access network computing node.
An apparatus comprising:
- a network interface circuit configured to interface a first access network computing node in a venue with a second access network computing node at the venue;
- and
- a processor circuit configured to determine a position of a person based on an image of the person captured with at least one camera at the venue, control rendering of an icon moving toward a destination in response to a determined movement of the person, and hand-off the control of rendering of the icon to the second access network computing node in response to the position of the person moving from a first domain zone associated with the first access network computing node to a second domain zone at the venue associated with the second access network computing node.
Logic encoded in one or more non-transitory tangible media for execution by a machine and when executed by the machine operable for:
- determining, by a first access network computing node at a venue, a position of a person based on an image of the person captured with at least one camera at the venue;
- controlling rendering, by the first access network computing node, of an icon moving toward a destination in response to a determined movement of the person;
- and
- handing-off, by the first access network computing node, the controlling rendering of the icon to a second access network computing node in response to the position of the person moving from a first domain zone associated with the first access network computing node to a second domain zone associated with the second access network computing node.
