  • Systems and methods for providing location specific content and notifications utilizing beacons and drones
    Patent number: 9832751
    Abstract: Venue information is stored, the venue information including a first location portion of the venue and a second location portion of the venue. An actual presence of a location sensing mobile device is identified within the venue, the actual presence identified based on beacon signals received from a beacon associated with the first location portion of the venue. A first drone associated with the first location portion of the venue is selected based on the actual presence. First sensor data is received from the first drone. A virtual presence of the location sensing mobile device is received, the virtual presence being different from the actual presence. A second drone associated with the second location portion of the venue is selected based on the virtual presence. Second sensor data is received from the second drone. The first and second sensor data is transmitted to the location sensing mobile device.
