Abstract

A location based mobile device system and application for providing artifact tours is described. The mobile device application of illustrative embodiments provides multimedia information regarding an array of artifacts pertinent to the location of the mobile device. The artifacts include both current and historical events, in addition to landmarks, architecture, famous persons associated with the location, natural phenomenon and age-based activities. Illustrative embodiments generate tours that connect artifacts by common theme and the current location of the mobile device. Information relevant to a particular location may be displayed or pushed on the mobile device unprompted when the device passes in proximity to a Bluetooth beacon.
