Abstract: A method for tracking patronage of a customer in at least one casino property is described. The method comprises monitoring a wireless handset location that is associated with the customer using a server. The server then proceeds to authenticate the wireless handset and the wireless handset communicates location information to server using at least one wireless networking protocol. The server generates a user profile associated with the customer that comprises at least one attribute. Complimentary prizes are determined by the server based on at least one attribute of the user profile. And the server sends a message to the wireless handset that is associated with the complimentary prize.

Abstract: Computer program products, methods, systems, apparatus, and computing entities for tracking an item delivery are provided. In one embodiment, an item is associated with a vehicle (e.g., manned or unmanned terrestrial vehicle, nautical vehicle, and/or aerial vehicle) by updating item data in a database. An item tracking session is then generated based on the item data. Upon the determination that session availability trigger has occurred, access to the item tracking session is provided to a user. Data representing an updated location of the delivery vehicle is then used to update the item data to indicate the current location of the item as the updated location of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method for tracking patronage of a customer in at least one casino property is described. The method comprises monitoring a wireless handset that determines the location of the customer. The method then proceeds to generate a user profile that comprises user preferences and monitored betting activity associated with the customer and accumulated points stored in a customer account according to a monetary value of the monitored betting activity. Complementary goods or services are determined based on the accumulated points associated with the customer account. A message is sent to the wireless handset associated with the complementary goods or services that is consistent with the user preferences.

Abstract: A system and method for generating a mobile autonomous dynamic graphical user interface is described. An illustrative system comprises a location-capable component, a user preference module, a server, a means for generating a display menu, and a wireless formatting engine. The location-capable component determines a location for a wireless device. The user preference module includes a variety of user preferences. The server selects targeted content based on the user preferences and the location of the wireless device. The selected content includes at least one user selectable menu button. A display menu is generated that includes the user selectable button. The wireless formatting engine formats the display menu and selected content for the wireless device.

Abstract: A system for adjusting a relevance weight value for a content item is described. The system comprises a content delivery module configured to deliver a plurality of content items to a device via a network. The content items are displayed on the device. A user provides a feedback input that is a positive review or a negative review for a content item. The feedback input is transmitted to a relevance weight adjustment module that subtracts a first point value from the relevance weight value associated with a first set of users when a negative review is received for the content item and adds a first point value to the relevance weight value associated with a first set of users when a positive review is received for the content item.

Abstract: A system and method for managing a vehicle cloud service are disclosed. The system utilizes a cloud management module resident on a server that transmits vehicle access invitations to end users according to a per-seat license that is capped with an upper limit of end users. A synchronization module synchronizes directory services for one or more cloud services including the vehicle cloud service and synchronizes the directory services with a licensing operational database. End users are offered cloud service upgrades and/or add-ons for access to a user profile associated with the end user.

Abstract: A network based indoor positioning and geofencing system and method is described. Beacons are disposed within a physical premises and each beacon transmits a signal containing identifying information. A networked indoor positioning module receives measured reference points that include a measured beacon identifier and a measured signal strength. The networked indoor positioning module uses the measured reference points to generate calculated signal strength values for at least one detected beacon. At least one geofence is associated with the physical premises and the geofence includes some of the calculated signal strength values. A wireless device receives a beacon identifier and a beacon signal strength, when the wireless device is in or near a geofence associated the physical premises.

Abstract: A system and method for determining the location of a wireless handset on a premises is described. The system comprises a plurality of beacons and a plurality of sensors associated with the premises. The sensors are configured to detect a radio frequency signal comprising a signal identifier from the beacons. A plurality of virtual reference point fingerprints are generated based on the beacon signal strengths detected by the sensors. The virtual reference points comprise signal strengths for each of the plurality of beacons estimated at intervals throughout the premises. The system further comprises a wireless handset configured to receive a handset fingerprint comprising a signal identifier and a signal strength from the beacons. The location of the wireless handset is determined based on a comparison between the handset fingerprint signal strengths and the signal strengths of a subset of the virtual reference point fingerprints.

Abstract: A networked gaming system and method is described. The networked gaming system and method include a user identification, a transactional component, a networked gaming module, and at least one network access device. The user identification is received by the network access device. The received user identification is compared with registration data in a registration database.
