Need directions? Just point your cell phone
Ever wish you could use your cell phone as a navigator? That you could point it in the direction you're walking and have it guide you to the nearest Starbucks or, in an emergency, the closest hospital? San Francisco's GeoVector plans to let you do just that, as well as play outside adventure games and locate friends and family. It will launch its service with a cell-phone company in Asia early next year and soon follow in the U.S. market, according to founder John Ellenby. [ via the Bradenton Herald ]. [...] The technology will let you point your cell phone at a building and have it tell you, for instance, that there's a hairdressing salon on the third floor. The salon might list its phone number, which you can then click on and make an appointment. The salon might even send an ad to your phone giving you a discount. Or if you're touring San Francisco and are unsure of which bridge spans out to Treasure Island, GeoVector will tell you it's the Bay Bridge. |
