Adaptive pedestrian billboard system and related methods
First Claim
1. An adaptive pedestrian billboard system comprising:
- a display for passing pedestrian traffic;
a memory for storing a plurality of notifications having different visual feature detail levels; and
a controller configured to cooperate with said display and said memory todetermine a density of the passing pedestrian traffic based upon position information collected from mobile wireless communications devices of the pedestrians,select notifications from said memory based upon the density of the passing pedestrian traffic so that notifications for higher density passing pedestrian traffic have lower visual feature detail levels and so that notifications for lower visual density passing pedestrian traffic have higher visual feature detail levels, anddisplay the selected notifications on said display.

Abstract
An adaptive pedestrian billboard system may include a display for passing pedestrian traffic, and a memory for storing a plurality of notifications having different visual feature detail levels. The system may further include a controller configured to cooperate with the display and the memory for determining a density of the passing pedestrian traffic, select notifications from the memory based upon the density of the passing pedestrian traffic so that notifications for higher density passing pedestrian traffic have lower visual feature detail levels and so that notifications for lower density passing pedestrian traffic have higher visual feature detail levels, and display the selected notifications on the display.

11. An adaptive pedestrian billboard system comprising:
-
a display for passing pedestrian traffic; a memory for storing a plurality of notifications having different visual feature detail levels based upon at least one of different densities and sizes of alphanumeric characters; and a controller configured to cooperate with said display and said memory to determine a density of the passing pedestrian traffic based upon position information collected from mobile wireless communications devices of the pedestrians, select notifications from said memory based upon the density of the passing pedestrian traffic so that notifications for higher density passing pedestrian traffic have lower visual feature detail levels and so that notifications for lower density passing pedestrian traffic have higher visual feature detail levels, and display the selected notifications on said display. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method for displaying notifications on a display for passing pedestrian traffic and comprising:
-
storing a plurality of notifications having different visual feature detail levels in a memory; determining a density of the passing pedestrian traffic based upon position information collected from mobile wireless communications devices of the pedestrians; selecting notifications from the memory based upon the density of the passing pedestrian traffic so that notifications for higher density passing pedestrian traffic have lower visual feature detail levels and so that notifications for lower density passing pedestrian traffic have higher visual feature detail levels; and displaying the selected notifications on the display. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
