Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are provided for providing augmented reality client application content to be enabled for one or more nodes. A method may include specifying a bounded area of a mesh network and associating content with the bounded area. The method may additionally include causing, at least in part, a peer-to-peer transmission of the content to one or more nodes within the bounded area over the mesh network. Corresponding apparatuses are also provided.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- specifying a bounded area of a mesh network;
- associating a group of users with the bounded area;
- retrieving a content from the users, via respective user devices,
- wherein the content includes a location, a directional heading, a tilt angle, a speed of at least one of the user devices, an object associated with each of the at least one of the user devices, or a combination thereof;
- determining a status of one or more regions within the bounded area over the mesh network based on the content by associating a user of the group to the one or more regions;
- and
- updating a map of the bounded area based on the status.

An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code,
- the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following,
- specify a bounded area of a mesh network;
- associate a group of users with the bounded area;
- retrieve a content from the users, via respective user devices,
- wherein the content includes a location, a directional heading, a tilt angle, a speed of at least one of the user devices, an object associated with each of the at least one of the user devices, or a combination thereof;
- determine a status of one or more regions within the bounded area over the mesh network based on the content by associating a user of the group to the one or more regions;
- and
- updating a map of the bounded area based on the status.
