Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for providing location information such as a map in an underground or shielded environment entails storing first near-field communication (NFC) data obtained by reading a first NFC tag at a first location, reading a second NFC tag at a second location, obtaining map data for an area encompassing the first and second locations, and displaying a map showing the first location and the second location.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for providing location information, the method comprising: storing first near-field communication (NFC) data obtained by reading a first NFC tag at a first location; reading a second NFC tag at a second location wherein each NFC tag comprises login credentials for accessing a Wi-Fi router; obtaining map data, using data obtained from the first and second NFC tags, for an area encompassing the first and second locations by downloading the m…
