Location-Based Content Delivery for Mobile Tourism Venues
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current technologies lack an efficient method for providing digital content for multiple tourism venues at different geographic locations, limiting the ability to offer tailored and location-aware experiences to users.
Innovation Solution
A system that stores venue location and content data, determines the current location of a mobile device, and provides relevant digital content when within a venue's geographic boundary, allowing for personalized experiences based on user preferences and venue priority.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If digital content is provided for multiple tourism venues using conventional methods, then users can access travel guide information, but the system cannot efficiently deliver personalized and location-aware content across multiple geographic locations
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the service into distinct functional modules: a venue database storing location and content data, a mobile device component determining current location, and a content delivery mechanism. This segmentation allows the system to handle multiple venues independently while maintaining overall coordination, resolving the contradiction between adaptability and complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary system that acts as a bridge between the venue database and mobile devices. This intermediary processes location information, matches users with relevant venues, and delivers appropriate content, thereby enabling personalized location-aware delivery without requiring complex direct connections between all components.
2Quantity of substance
If the system provides comprehensive digital content for all venues, then users gain access to extensive tourism information, but the efficiency of delivering relevant content to specific locations decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies local quality by tailoring content delivery to specific geographic locations. Each venue has associated content that is selectively delivered based on the user's current location determined by GPS coordinates. This ensures that users receive relevant content for their immediate surroundings rather than generic information, maintaining high delivery efficiency while providing comprehensive venue coverage.
Solution Approach 2:
The venue database pre-stores location data and digital content for multiple venues before users need them. This preliminary organization of data by location and content type enables rapid retrieval and delivery when users arrive at specific venues, improving delivery efficiency without sacrificing the comprehensiveness of available content.
3Measurement precision
If the system uses GPS and location data to determine user position, then location-aware content can be delivered, but additional data processing and analysis requirements increase system complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile device utilizes its built-in GPS receiver to self-determine its own location without requiring external positioning infrastructure. The device automatically processes its GPS coordinates and compares them with venue location data in the database, eliminating the need for complex external data processing systems and reducing overall system complexity while maintaining high location accuracy.

AI summary
Disclosed herein are, among other things, systems and methods for providing digital content for multiple venues to mobile devices. In some embodiments, venue location data defining a geographic boundary of each of a plurality of venues and venue content data for a plurality of different attractions associated with the venue is stored. A processing device system may be configured to determine a current location of the mobile device, and provide at least some of the venue content data based at least on an analysis of the venue location data, or attraction location data, and the current location.
