Abstract

A beacon system is used to monitor the location and identity of individuals using stationary sniffers and to provide that information to a virtual assistant for improved functionality and better context derived from location with respect to standard virtual assistant queries. The system provides a heuristic mapping process providing increasingly precise mapping of the individual with minimal consumer input.
