Image mapping to provide visual geographic path
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for mapping a visual path, the method comprising:
- monitoring a visual path taken by a wireless user in a predefined area;
receiving at a processing device one or more current images collected in real time or in near real-time of the predefined area;
processing one or more input path parameters associated with the one or more current images;
integrating the one or more current images and the one or more input path parameters into a visual path through the predefined area; and
mapping the visual path through the predefined area in response to one or more input path parameters for transmission to a display device and/or for storage for later mobile use.
