1. A method performed by a first mobile device in a first space in communication with a second mobile device in a second space, the method comprising:
- detecting an occurrence of a proximity notification event defined by the second device;
responsive to detection of the proximity event and determining a reply based on a location with respect to a destination or boundary point location; and
communicating position with a notification from the first device to the second device and sending a notification to the second device.

Abstract
Position and proximity detection systems and methods are disclosed. According to an aspect, a computing device may include a processor configured to determine a position coordinate of a first movable device. Further, the processor is configured to determine whether the position coordinate of the first movable device is a predetermined distance from a second movable device. The processor is also configured to signal the second movable device in response to determining that the position coordinate of the first movable device is a predetermined distance from a second movable device.
