Abstract:
1. A system for delivering content within a boundary, comprising: a plurality of beacons, each beacon among the plurality of beacons configured to transmit a signal containing identifying information; a location positioning module configured to receive a beacon signal data communication from a wireless device, the beacon signal data including a beacon received signal strength and a beacon identification for each beacon signal received at the wireless device; the location positioning module configured to receive a plurality of measured reference points that include a measured beacon identifier and a measured signal strength; the location positioning module configured to use the measured reference points to generate a plurality of calculated signal strength values for at least one detected beacon, wherein some of the calculated signal strength values are associated with at least one geographic boundary; the location positioning module further configured to determine the location of the wireless device by comparing the beacon signal data to the plurality of calculated signal strength values; and a networked component configured to transmit to the wireless device at least one content item associated with the geographic boundary when the wireless device is within the geographic boundary.
