System and method for printing location-based, customized data
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a multifunctional product;
a proximity beacon;
a server on a network and having access to a database,wherein the database includes location data associated with the proximity beacon, andwherein the location data includes a location-based artifact; and
a mobile client device having access to the network and associated with a user profile,wherein the mobile client device has instructions stored thereon to cause the mobile client device to communicate with the multifunctional product and the server,wherein the mobile client device is configured to determine when the mobile client device is within a threshold distance of the proximity beacon,wherein, when the mobile client device determines that the mobile client device has been within a first threshold distance of the proximity beacon, the server and the mobile client device cooperatively provide print data,wherein the print data;
is based on the location-based artifact and the user profile,includes a heat map that provides information regarding population densities within a venue,is transmitted to the multifunctional product, andis printed by the multifunctional product, andwherein the heat map indicates alternate routes between locations on the heat map when common routes between locations on the heat map have high traffic levels.

Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to a printing system. The printing system includes a geographic location server on a network that has access to a geographic location database. The printing system also includes a user profile server that has access to a user profile database. The printing system also includes a mobile client device that can communicate with the geographic location server and the user profile server and is associated with a user profile included in the user profile database. The geographic location server and the user profile server cooperatively provide print data when the mobile client device is within a threshold distance of a geographic position of one geographic location stored within the geographic location database. The print data is based on one location-based artifact of the geographic location and user profile data, and is printed by a printing device.

18. A method for providing customized, location-based content, comprising:
-
receiving a transmission from a mobile client device when the mobile client device determines that the mobile client device is within a first threshold distance of a proximity beacon, wherein the mobile client device has access to a network and is associated with a user profile, wherein the mobile client device has instructions stored thereon to cause the mobile client device to communicate with a server, wherein the server is on the network and has access to a database, wherein the database includes location data associated with the proximity beacon, and wherein the location data associated with the proximity beacon includes a location-based artifact; and providing the customized, location-based content by the mobile client device and the server, cooperatively, wherein the customized, location-based content; is based on the location-based artifact and the user profile, includes a heat map that provides information regarding population densities within a venue, and is printable by one or more multifunctional products, and wherein the heat map indicates alternate routes between locations on the heat map when common routes between locations on the heat map have high traffic levels. - View Dependent Claims (19)

20. A mobile client computing device, comprising:
-
a network interface configured to communicate with; a multifunctional product; a proximity beacon; and a server on a network that has access to a database, wherein the database includes location data associated with the proximity beacon, and wherein the location data includes a location-based artifact; a memory with instructions stored thereon; and a processing device, wherein when the processing device executes the instructions, the processing device causes the mobile client device to; communicate with the multifunctional product and the server; and determine when the mobile client device is within a first threshold distance of the proximity beacon, wherein the server and the mobile client device cooperatively provide print data to the multifunctional product when the mobile client device determines that the mobile client device is within the first threshold distance, wherein the print data; is based on the location-based artifact and the user profile, includes a heat map that provides information regarding population densities within a venue, is transmitted to the multifunctional product, and is printed by the multifunctional product, and wherein the heat map indicates alternate routes between locations on the heat map when common routes between locations on the heat map have high traffic levels.
