Abstract: An information delivery system has a computational device connected over a network with a server and associated storage device. The computational device is configured with functionality that generates a message requesting information relating to a particular geolocation that is stored in association with the server. The server identifies one or more files corresponding to the location information in the message and delivers them to the computational device, which compares information in the files with a visual image relating to an object selected by a computational device user and with an object type relating to the visual image, and displays information in a file if the visual image selected by the user matches visual image information in the file.

Abstract: An admission system comprising a mobile admission application in communication with a venue admission system. The mobile admission application runs on a mobile communication device under the control of an individual and operates to generate and send an admission request to the venue admission system having the identity of the member. The venue admission system operates to receive the admission request message and to verify the membership of the individual sending the request message. Provided the individual is verified to be a member of the venue, the venue admission system encrypts the member identity and sends the encrypted identity to the mobile admission application. Prior to being admitted to the venue, the mobile admission application generates and send an admission message with the encrypted member identity that is received by the venue admission system.

Abstract: An indoor wayfinding application operates to generate pathway instructions based on knowledge about a mobile device user orientation, a starting location, a destination location and based upon knowledge of spatial inter-relationships and dimensions of enclosed spaces in a building. The user orientation is determined by an image comparison algorithm operating on a query image captured by a camera and a reference image, and the starting location is determined by comparing the query image to a plurality of reference images, each one of which is at a known location, for a best match.

Abstract: A location and activity aware content delivery system stores a plurality of instances of media content relating to known locations, and each of the instances of media content that are not generated by a mobile device user at the time the user is engaged in an activity proximate to the known locations. The system detects a current mobile device user location, emotional response and activity, selects an appropriate stored instance of media content and delivers the selected media content to a friendly user if the emotional response is positive, and does not deliver the selected media content if the emotional response is negative.

Abstract: One or more wireless networks operate to provide wireless connectivity to a network server that runs an application that operates to deliver content in the form of a location defined file to a mobile communication device that is either moving around a building interior or moving around in the open air. The mobile communication device has functionality that determines is rate of motion and functionality that allows it to determine its geographic location. The rate of motion and the geographic location can be sent to the application running on the network server and used to determine what type of content is appropriate to deliver and to and display on the mobile communication device.

Abstract: A media content delivery system includes a network server in communications with a plurality of mobile communication devices. The network server maintains a map of geo-fence instances and corresponding geographic locations of each, and it maintains a store of media content that relates to each geographic location. Each of the communication devices has functionality that operates to determine its current geographic location and to send the current geographic location to the network server. The network server runs a logical process that determines if a current location of the mobile device corresponds to a geo-fence location, and if so, operates to determine whether the user is waiting in a queue defined by the geo-fence. If both of these conditions are satisfied, the server selects and delivers media content to the mobile device that relates in some manner to a venue associated with the identified geo-fence instance.

Abstract: An activity based, location aware content delivery system runs a content delivery process that operates to detect a current location of a mobile device user, and to identify a first instance of content corresponding to the current mobile device location. The instance of content is used to identify a priority activity the mobile device user was previously engaged in at another location that has a pointer to a second instance of media content that is sent to the mobile device user.
