First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a wireless transceiver configured to receive a packet sequence sent according to a Bluetooth®
low energy (BLE) protocol, the packet sequence including information identifying a location;
a network interface component configured to send a check in request including the received packet sequence;
one or more processors configured to generate the check in request; and
a memory configured to store the received packet sequence.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed which may allow a user having a mobile device to check in to a location using a packet sequence that includes information for identifying the location transmitted by one or more Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) beacons at or near the location. The user may be able to store packet sequences for various locations that may allow the user to automatically check into these locations using the store packet sequences.

8. A method comprising:
-
receiving, by a client computing device, a packet sequence sent according to a Bluetooth®
low energy (BLE) protocol, the packet sequence including information identifying a location;sending, by the client computing device, a check in request to check in to the location when the received packet sequence matches a stored packet sequence specific to the location; receiving, by the client computing device, the packet sequence specific to the location when the received packet sequence does not match a stored packet sequence specific to the location, the received packet sequence specific to the location being received over a network; and storing, in a memory of the client computing device, the received packet sequence specific to the location. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions that, when executed by one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving a packet sequence sent according to a Bluetooth®
low energy (BLE) protocol, the packet sequence identifying a location;sending a check in request to check in to the location when the received packet sequence matches a stored packet sequence specific to the location; receiving the packet sequence specific to the location when the received packet sequence does not match a stored packet sequence specific to the location, the received packet sequence specific to the location being received over a network; and storing the received packet sequence specific to the location. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
