20140277654 | SMART MEDIA GUIDES, BEACON-BASED SYSTEMS AND FORMATTED DATA COLLECTION DEVICES - The SMART MEDIA GUIDE (“SMG”) implements a compact and portable digital media guide interfaced with smart interfaces. The SMG may include facilities for storing and reproducing digital content with or without any recording capability. The digital content stored in the SMG memory may or may not be changeable but access to the stored content may be selectively enabled or disabled based on external verification via one or more smart interfaces. In beacon-based systems, remote units may be triggered to initiate various functionalities based on satisfaction of a beacon's signal signal strength criterion. | 09-18-2014 |
