Abstract
Some implementations of the invention provide real-time navigation data via a mobile device. Some embodiments of the invention provide portable devices that can indicate both relatively “static” information, such as map data, architectural features, casino layout information, etc., which may be updated from time to time. Accordingly, the term “static” as used herein does not necessarily mean unchanging or unchangeable. Some such embodiments provide portable devices that can simultaneously display static information and real-time video data. The video data may be provided by one or more cameras in a camera network. Information, such as offers, advertisements, etc., may be provided to a user according to the user'"'"'s location.
