1. A mobile terminal comprising:
- a camera that captures a first image,a radio transceiver that;
discovers one or more wireless devices capable of effecting wireless communications with the mobile terminal,determines a bearing and a distance from the mobile terminal to a position of each of the discovered wireless devices, andreceives, from at least one of the discovered wireless devices, information pertaining to respective distances from the at least one discovered wireless device to other discovered wireless devices,a processor that;
correlates the bearing and distance from the mobile terminal to the position of the at least one discovered wireless device determined by the mobile terminal with the distances from the at least one discovered wireless device to other discovered wireless devices received from the discovered wireless devices to generate a three-dimensional map including the position of each of the discovered wireless devices,projects the position of each of the discovered wireless devices onto the first image, andcreates a second image by overlaying symbols, onto the first image, at the projected positions of each of the discovered wireless devices, anda display that displays the second image, wherein the processor further pairs, in response to a request from a user of the mobile terminal selecting one of the discovered wireless devices, the selected discovered wireless device with the mobile terminal.
