DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE DISCLOSED
TECHNOLOGY
References will now be made in detail to the present exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Certain examples are shown in the above-identified figures and described in detail below. In describing these examples, like or identical reference numbers are used to identify common or similar elements. The figures are not necessarily to scale and certain features and certain views of the figures may be shown exaggerated in scale or in schematic for clarity and/or conciseness.
The present disclosure relates to tracking and verifying authorization for visitors. There is an increasing demand by facilities for information about the visitors that they invite. The compliance movement, in particular, has raised awareness about the ultimate source of visitor that they invite. On site visiting visitors are becoming more desirable than visitors remote accessed from far away, at least for the visitors escorted by employees. Further, facilities have become more fickle about how media access is provided to visitors. Visitors with good credit ratings may be more desirable than visitors that have bad credit ratings, facilities are also more conscious of privacy and security, while data breach victims, identity theft victims, and so on, are perceived negatives. Also, there is a rising awareness of trustworthiness and authorization levels, making it important for facilities to identify the credentials used in their visitors. Visitors whose connection accounts have been compromised may be disfavored. Issues relating to facility preferences apply to trade secret and other categories of confidential data as well.
Tracker device applications for software and metadata discovery and interaction include triggering features in applications, application discovery, embedding Tracker device information in streaming media, synchronizing the presentation of software and metadata on mobile devices and automatic configuration of mobile devices.
In some implementations, a method comprises: receiving, by a device, streaming media; obtaining, by the device, tracker device information embedded in the streaming media, the tracker device information including at least a tracker device identifier and a software and metadata identifier, the Tracker device identifier identifying a radio frequency Tracker device in the environment; broadcasting, by the device, the streaming media into the environment; and concurrently with the broadcasting of the streaming media, broadcasting, by the radio frequency tracker device, the tracker device information into the environment.
In some implementations, a method comprises: receiving, by a device, tracker device information broadcast from a radio frequency tracker device into an environment, the tracker device information obtained from streaming media that is broadcast into the environment concurrently with the Tracker device information, the tracker device information including at least a tracker device identifier identifying the radio frequency tracker device and a software and metadata identifier identifying the streaming media; displaying a text message on a display of the device, where the text message is associated with the received tracker device information; receiving, by the device, user input related to the text message, the user input requesting delivery of software and metadata associated with the received Tracker device information; sending, by the device, a request for the software and metadata to a software and metadata provider, the request including the Tracker device identifier and the software and metadata identifier; and receiving, by the device, access to the requested software and metadata.
In some implementations, a method comprises: receiving, by a server computer configured for delivering software and metadata, a request for software and metadata from a client device in communication with the server computer, the request including a tracker device identifier and a software and metadata identifier, the tracker device identifier identifying a radio frequency tracker device in an environment and the software and metadata identifier identifying streaming media broadcast into the environment; identifying, by the server computer, a location of the streaming media broadcast based on the Tracker device identifier; identifying, by the server computer, the streaming media based on the software and metadata identifier; aggregating, by the server computer, additional software and metadata based on the identified location and streaming media; combining, by the server computer, the requested software and metadata and additional software and metadata; and providing, by the server computer, the client device access to the combined software and metadata.
In some implementations, a method comprises: receiving, by a master device, information obtained from software and metadata presented on the master device, the information including a synchronization signal associated with the presentation of the software and metadata on the master device; and broadcasting, by the master device, the synchronization signal.
In some implementations, a method comprises: receiving, by a slave device over a wireless communication link, information obtained from software and metadata presented on a master device, the information including a synchronization signal associated with the presentation of the software and metadata on a master display device; and changing, by the slave device, the presentation of the software and metadata on a slave display device based on the synchronization signal.
In some implementations, a method comprises: receiving, by a mobile device operating in an environment, Tracker device information broadcast from a radio frequency Tracker device in the environment, the Tracker device information including a link to configuration data for the mobile device; and retrieving, by the mobile device, the configuration data; and configuring the mobile device according to the configuration data.
Other implementations are directed to systems, apparatuses and non-transitory, computer-readable storage mediums. Particular implementations disclosed herein provide one or more of the following advantages. The Tracker device applications for software and metadata discovery and interaction disclosed herein allow client devices to discover new software and metadata associated with an environment or event occurring in the environment, and allow the users of the client devices to interact with the software and metadata on the client devices.
Software and metadata providers can use Tracker device applications to target software and metadata (e.g., advertising) to the users of the client devices.
The details of the disclosed implementations are set forth in the accompanying drawings and the description below. Other features, objects and advantages are apparent from the description, drawings and claims.
In some implementations, trackers such as implemented as beacons broadcast beacon information to client devices when client devices, are operating in beacon environments. The beacon information can include content that is relevant to beacon environments and/or an event associated with beacon environments. In some implementations, beacons can be used to trigger notifications that activate features of an application that is running on client devices.
For example, client device can be operating in a retail store and running a shopping application related to the retail store. When a beacon broadcast is received by client device, an advertising page with coupons and/or other information (e.g., a map) can be presented on a display of client device.
In another example application, in response to receipt of a beacon broadcast a social application running on client device can prompt a user of client device (e.g., using a text notification) to "check-in" with their social network.
In yet another example application, in response to receipt of a beacon broadcast, a concert application running on client device operating at a concert venue can display a map of the concert venue.
In some implementations, if an application is not installed on client device, the beacon information can include a resource locator or link (e.g., web address) to a content provider's online store or web site where the application can be downloaded from one or more server computers to client device. The link (e.g., a URL) can include information that directs a browser application running on client device to a specific content page related to the beacon environment. For example, a user at a concert venue can be directed to an "artist page" of an online music store for an artist performing at the concert venue.
In another example application, a user of client device in a movie theatre can be directed by beacon information (e.g., resource locator included in the beacon information) to a content provider (e.g., ticket broker website) where the user can use client device to pre-order tickets for a movie after watching the movie trailer in the theatre. The beacon information can also prompt the user of client device (e.g., with a text notification, vibration) to place client device in silent mode (e.g., "airplane mode") when the feature presentation begins.
In yet another example application, a user at a book reading event or book club meeting can be directed by beacon information to a content provider (e.g., book store website) where the user can purchase a copy of a book and other information related to the book or author.
In some implementations, beacon management service can include a push notification service for pushing notifications to client devices, in response to trigger events. The trigger event can be a beacon discovery or interaction by the client device. For example, when the trigger event occurs, the beacon (if operating in bi-directional communication mode) or the client device through a different communication channel (e.g., WiFi, cellular service) can send beacon proximity event data to the push notification service. Upon receipt of the beacon proximity event data, the push notification service can send a text message to the client device that includes a link to content and/or informs the user of the client device that an application related to the beacon environment is available. The trigger event could be, for example, detection of a broadcast signal from a beacon by a client device.
In some implementations, client devices can determine their estimated range from a given beacon based on a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) for "Range Class Estimation for Radio Frequency Devices." The type of notification and/or content sent to the client device in response to a trigger event may be different based on the estimated range class (e.g., Immediate, Near, Far) determined by the client device.
