Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure involve a system and/or method for indoor mapping. The indoor mapping system may receive wireless signals from wireless devices located in an area and create a wireless signal fingerprint that identifies each signal and the strength of the signal. A user may identify the location that the wireless signal fingerprint was taken on a geo-referenced map. After the wireless signal fingerprints for an area have been mapped, a user may determine a location by taking a wireless signal fingerprint and comparing the wireless signal fingerprint to previously taken wireless signal fingerprints.
Abstract: A user can locate products by dialing a number from any phone and accessing an automatic voice recognition system. Reply is made to the user with information locating the product using a store's product location data converted to automatic voice responses. smart phone and mobile web access to a product database is enabled using voice-to-text and text search. A taxonomy enables product search requests by product descriptions and/or product brand names, and enable synonyms and phonetic enhancements to the system. Search results are related to products and product categories with concise organization. Relevant advertisements, promotional offers and coupons are delivered based upon search and taxonomy elements. Search requests generate dynamic interior maps of a products location inside the shoppers' location, assisting a shopper to efficiently shop the location for listed items. Business intelligence of product categories enable rapid scaling across retail segments.

Abstract: A system and method for providing automatic voice recognition and voice response product location information in a store while using a personal mobile phone or any phone connected to a telecommunications or data communications network such as and including the Internet and an automatic speech recognition system. The system 403 & 404 asks a user and/or customer 300 a series of automated questions to help the user and/or customer 300 locate products in stores. In the embodiment of the invention, the user and/or customer 300 only needs to dial the toll free or dial in number 302 from any phone to use the system in order to receive the requested product location information or other available information by the automated response system. This invention creates the product location assistance (PLA) system to be used in locating products in stores, creating new efficiencies in customer service for retailers, businesses and organizations.
