Abstract:
The present disclosure describes how a master beacon having a known UUID can be used to capture beacons within its range and superimpose a systematic address scheme on those beacons. The superimposed address scheme can then be used as a proxy for the individual beacons when developing applications that make use of the beacons. A master beacon automatically detects each beacon in a plurality of beacons and, for a set of beacons in the plurality of beacons, automatically changes either the first profile identifier or the second profile identifier for each beacon in the set of beacons. The change is such that the first profile identifier or the second profile identifier is identical for each beacon in the set of beacons and is also associated with the master beacon.

Claim (Index 8):
Use of a beacon network, the beacon network comprising:\n a remote server comprising a master database for storing a UUID, a first profile identifier and a second profile identifier for each beacon and master beacon in the beacon network; and executable program logic; at least one master beacon, each said master beacon comprising:\n a master beacon processing unit; \n a wireless local network unit coupled to the master beacon processing unit; \n a BLE-capable Bluetooth unit coupled to the master beacon processing unit; \n a master beacon storage coupled to the master beacon processing unit; and \n a power source adapted to power the master beacon; \n the master beacon storage storing:\n a master beacon identifier for the master beacon; \n a first profile identifier for the master beacon; \n a second profile identifier for the master beacon; and \n instructions executable by the master beacon processing unit for connecting to the remote server using the wireless local network unit; and \n \n a BLE-enabled receiving device having software configured to receive and process advertisements comprising the UUID, the first profile identifier and the second profile identifier for each beacon and master beacon in the beacon network to perform predetermined actions; wherein the executable program logic comprises logic to assign a common master beacon identifier so that each said master beacon in the beacon network is assigned to a single logical network.
