Patent ID: 7734513

Claim:
A system for locating a presumed position of an operator in a store, comprising: A map of said store; An X and Y two-dimensional grid superimposed over said map of said store; A set of X and Y positional coordinates that correspond with each said presumed position of said operator on said X and Y two-dimensional grid superimposed over said map of said store; At least one location tracking device positioned in a proximate position to said operator that operates to calculate X and Y positional coordinates data; At least one logic engine that organizes and stores said X and Y positional coordinates data; and A communication multi-network for communication about said store, the communication multi-network comprising At least one star communication network through which non-location data is transferred to said at least one logic engine; and At least one mesh communication network through which said at least one location tracking device is tracked throughout said store based on said X and Y positional coordinates data; Whereby said at least one logic engine is operatively connected to said communication multi-network; whereby said at least one location tracking device is operatively connected to said communication multi-network and communicates through said communication multi-network to said at least one logic engine; whereby each said at least one location tracking device operates as a blind node within said communication multi-network.
