SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING REAL-TIME LOCATION-BASED NOTIFICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18045703 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GENERATING REAL-TIME LOCATION-BASED NOTIFICATIONS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a system and method for generating real-time location-based notifications by detecting recurring user activities and determining if current user activities are substitutes for the recurring activities.
- The system receives recurring user activities at a previous location during a recurring time period.
- It detects the user's current location in proximity to the previous location during an instance of the recurring time period.
- The system determines if any user activity was executed at the current location.
- If a different user activity is executed at the current location, the system checks if it is a substitute for the recurring user activity.
- The system updates the measure of elasticity of the recurring user activity based on the determination.
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in various industries such as retail, transportation, and healthcare for personalized notifications based on user activities.
Problems Solved
1. Provides real-time location-based notifications for users. 2. Helps in understanding user behavior patterns and preferences.
Benefits
1. Enhanced user experience with personalized notifications. 2. Improved efficiency in delivering relevant information to users.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing marketing strategies, improving customer engagement, enhancing user experience in mobile applications.
Possible Prior Art
There may be existing systems that provide location-based notifications, but the specific method of detecting recurring user activities and determining substitutes for them may be a novel aspect of this technology.

How does this technology compare to existing location-based notification systems?
This article does not provide a direct comparison to existing location-based notification systems.
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and methods for generating real-time location-based notifications are described. In some aspects, the system receives a recurring user activity that is recurring at a previous location during a recurring time period. Based on detecting that a current location of the user is in proximity of the previous location during an instance of the recurring time period, the system determines whether any user activity was executed while the user is present at the current location. Based on determining that a current user activity was executed by the user different from the recurring user activity, the system determines whether the current user activity is a substitute for an instance of the recurring user activity. The system updates a measure of elasticity of the recurring user activity based on determining that the current user activity is a substitute for the instance of the recurring user activity.
