Abstract
A system and method for multi-beacon management including: determining occurrence of a trigger event; determining a beacon to be acted upon; determining the settings to be assigned; assigning the settings to the beacon; and operating the beacon according to the settings.
Claims15
A method for beacon parameter migration, comprising:
- broadcasting a first and second identifier from a first and second Bluetooth beacon, respectively;
- at a user device:
- receiving the first and second identifiers;
- connecting to the first and second Bluetooth beacons based on the first and second identifiers, respectively;
- retrieving parameter values for the first Bluetooth beacon from the first Bluetooth beacon;
- transmitting the parameter values to the second beacon;
- and
- transmitting the first and second identifiers and the parameter values to a remote processing system;
- at the second Bluetooth beacon:
- storing the parameter values in on-board storage;
- broadcasting based on the parameter values, comprising broadcasting the first identifier;
- at the remote processing system:
- resolving the first and second identifiers into a first and second unique identifier for the first and second Bluetooth beacon, respectively;
- associating the parameter values with the second unique identifier;
- and
- transmitting a confirmation packet to the user device in response to parameter value association with the second unique identifier.

A method for Bluetooth beacon parameter migration, comprising:
- determining new beacon collocation with a configured Bluetooth beacon;
- retrieving parameter values for the configured Bluetooth beacon from the configured Bluetooth beacon, with a user device, in response to collocation determination;
- transmitting the parameter values from the user device to the remote computing system;
- broadcasting a first and second identifier from the configured Bluetooth beacon and the new beacon, respectively;
- receiving the first and second identifier at the user device;
- transmitting the first and second identifier from the user device to a remote computing system;
- associating the parameter values with the new beacon at the remote computing system in response to receiving the first and second identifier at the remote computing system, comprising:
- resolving the second identifier into a unique beacon identifier for the new beacon;
- and
- associating the parameter values, received from the user device, with the unique beacon identifier at the remote computing system;
- transmitting a confirmation packet to the user device in response to parameter value association with the unique beacon identifier;
- storing the parameter values on the new beacon;
- and
- operating the new beacon according to the parameter values.
