System for adjusting map navigation path in retail store and method of using same
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a computer system configured to provide output of a retail store to a graphical user interface on a mobile device of a customer;
the computer system being configured to receive a request for information from the customer, to obtain a store map, the store map being indicative of a layout of the retail store, and to transmit to the graphical user interface on the mobile device a representation of the store map and one or more product records located within the layout of the retail store;
the computer system being configured to provide a list of products to the graphical user interface on the mobile device of the customer and icons being associated with physical locations of products of the list of products, and to present the store map overlaid with the icons of the products and an initial navigation path to a first designation on the graphical user interface on the mobile device to a first icon of the icons associated with a first product of the products, wherein the store map represents the layout of the retail store, the icons of the products and the initial navigation path to the first designation that are positioned overlaid on the store map to designate a first physical location of the first icon associated with the first product of the products, as selected, for the layout of the retail store; and
the computer system being configured to suggest a second designation including a second icon on-route of the initial navigation path, the second designation being associated with a second physical location in the retail store, the second icon comprising a recommended product located within a pre-determined proximity of the first icon, wherein the computer system changes the graphical user interface to add a second navigation path overlaid on the initial navigation path on the graphical user interface of the mobile device of the customer, and to present the initial navigation path and the second navigation path positioned to be overlaid on the store map in the graphical user interface on the mobile device, wherein the second navigation path comprises a first path from a location of the mobile device to the second designation and from the second designation to the first designation.

12. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a computer system using one or more processors, a request for information from a customer, to obtain a store map, the store map being indicative of a layout of a retail store, and to transmit to a graphical user interface on a mobile device a representation of the store map and one or more product records located within the layout of the retail store; providing, by the computer system, a list of products to the graphical user interface on the mobile device of the customer and icons being associated with physical locations of products of the list of products, and to present the store map overlaid with the icons of the products and an initial navigation path to a first designation on the graphical user interface on the mobile device to a first icon of the icons associated with a first product of the products, wherein the store map represents the layout of the retail store, the icons of the products and the initial navigation path to the first designation that are positioned overlaid on the store map to designate a first physical location of the first icon associated with the first product of the products, as selected, for the layout of the retail store; and suggesting, with the computer system, a second designation including a second icon on-route of the initial navigation path, the second designation being associated with a second physical location in the retail store, the second icon comprising a recommended product located within a pre-determined proximity of the first icon, wherein the computer system changes the graphical user interface to add a second navigation path overlaid on the initial navigation path on the graphical user interface of the mobile device of the customer, and to, present the initial navigation path and the second navigation path positioned overlaid on the store map to the graphical user interface on the mobile device, wherein the second navigation path comprises a first path from a location of the mobile device to the second designation and from the second designation to the first designation. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
