A location-based service includes detecting the relative motion of an on-site resource, such as a shopping cart, in addition to detecting the absolute position of the on-site resource, and displaying information on the on-site resource. The displayed information is based upon the detected relative motion and the detected absolute position. The relative motion is tracked and a position on a floor plan is deduced. This deduced position is adjusted, for example, synchronized or reset, as a function of and in response to the detected absolute position.

A freestanding partition panel for dividing a floor space includes a rigid partition frame having vertical side frame members and first and second horizontal frame members extending between the vertical side frame members to form a vertically enlarged opening through the frame, and an open space within the panel. At least one intermediate horizontal cross member extends across the vertically enlarged opening and defines upper and lower openings through the frame. The intermediate cross member and at least a selected one of the first and second horizontal frame members include a plurality of horizontally spaced apart attachment locations defining a plurality of discrete, serially adjacent mounting spaces. The partition panel further includes a utility unit that is mountable in a selected one of the mounting spaces. The partition panel further includes a first cover panel secured to the partition frame and extending horizontally between the side edge of the utility unit and the selected vertical side frame member. The first cover panel is connected to the intermediate horizontal cross member and extends vertically between the intermediate horizontal cross member and the selected one of the first and second members. A second cover panel is secured to the partition frame, and extends horizontally between the vertical side frame members. The second cover panel extends vertically between the intermediate horizontal cross member and the other of the selected one of the first and second horizontal members.

A partition system for office spaces generally includes a framework and a plurality of different types of decorative and / or functional tiles mountable to the framework. The framework includes I- and C-shaped vertical frame members which are adjustably joined by upper and lower horizontal spanners such that the distance between the vertical frame members is adjustable. Also, the framework may include other types of vertical frame members for forming L-, T-, or X-junctions within the partition system framework. A variety of decorative and functional tiles are mountable to the framework, including retractable workspace tiles, several types of storage tiles, display tiles, window tiles, and electrical and data services tiles.

Adjustable sneezeguard apparatus includes a double-ended, elongated support member which is pivotal relative to a support. A sneezeguard panel holder is connected to the elongated support member and is pivotal relative to the support member.
