Many companies are trying to tap the omnipresence of Mobile devices to deliver the best experience and gain maximum profitsApple is one of those with its latest product,
iBeacon
iBeacon
iBeacons are tiny, battery-powered devices that can be used to exactly locate a smartphone app user in a very precise physical location using Bluetooth (not NFC)
A single beacon costs around $30/£20/€22.
It enables your phone to do things when you are close to a specific location
Like alerts, notifications etc.
How to use it ?
You place a beacon near the front door of your store. This beacon’s ID number is known by an app you have produced for your chain of stores.
When someone who has downloaded your app is nearby, a message can be shown on their smartphone’s lock-screen, similar to an incoming text message. This message can say something as simple as ‘20% off, if you visit in the next 20 minutes.’
Where to use it ?
Retail Stores (Big Bazaar and Easy Day)
Airports Hotels ( Oberoi, Leela) FMCG & sales promotions Entertainment
How does it help ?
Knowing a user in a nearby location, the marketers can provide them with their latest offers ( everything is M2M communication here !)
