Location specific personalized enterprise services using video signature of an electronic display

摘要

Readily available mobile computing devices and electronic display signs that are associated with particular locations are used to provide enhanced location specific services to customers in a secure manner. A customer at enterprise premises can access the available services published by the enterprise by capturing information from an electronic display sign using an authentic mobile computing device application. Non-reproducible content is displayed on the electronic display signs to enable authentication of a mobile computing device application, where the mobile computing device application once authenticated acts as a trusted end point to publish the enterprise services. Hardware investment for the enterprise is reduced, and shortcomings of existing network based location specific services are overcome.
