In this unique app for conferences, OnCell-TourSphere will show how beacons can be used to trigger content in your mobile tour app and how they can be used as part of your overall mobile interpretive strategy.
Beacons are transmitters that can be detected by mobile devices, and more specifically, by one of the apps running on a device. When your visitor enters a defined area, they can be prompted to access a site, or can be alerted to any other messages like finding the gift shop, visitors center, or to take advantage of a discount. The beacons utilize low-powered technology and can avoid draining the battery on the mobile device.
