Systems, devices, and methods for guiding a client device user toward a host device, which may include receiving, by positioning circuitry of a client device, position information regarding a position of a host device and activating a display of the client device, in response to receiving the position information, to display an indicator representing a direction toward the host device and distance between the host device and the client device based on the position information. The indicator may include a pointer having an orientation in the direction toward the host device and a length corresponding to the distance between the host device and the client device. The host device may communicate with a bridge device via a particular wireless communications standard, and the bridge may relay such communications to client devices via another wireless communications standard with which the host device is not equipped. |

1. A system for guiding a client device user toward a host device, comprising:
a host device comprising a first wireless transceiver and a first display; a client device comprising a second wireless transceiver, a second display, and an attachment mechanism; the host device in wireless communication with the client device over a communications channel; the host device further comprising circuitry configured to receive, via the first wireless transceiver, first position data regarding a client device position, wherein the host device further comprises circuitry configured to activate the first display, in response to the first position data being received by the host device, to show an indication of the client device on the display which indicates a relative direction and distance of the client device from the host device based on the first position data; the client device further comprising circuitry configured to receive, via the second wireless transceiver, second position data regarding a host device position, wherein the client device further comprises circuitry configured to activate the second display, in response to the second position data being received by the client device, to show an indication of a relative direction and distance of the host device from the client device based on the second position data; wherein the indication of the relative direction and distance of the host device from the client device comprises a pointer having an orientation toward the host device and a length corresponding to a relative distance between the client device and the host device; the client device further comprising circuitry configured to activate the display, in response to the second position data indicating a change in the relative direction of the host device from the client device, to change an orientation of the pointer toward the host device; and, the client device further comprising circuitry configured to activate the display, in response to the second position data indicating a change in the relative distance of the host device from the client device, to change a length of the pointer, wherein the length is decreased if the relative distance is decreased and wherein the length is increased if the relative distance is increased. |
