Vehicle identification and device communication through directional wireless signaling
Abstract:
There are provided systems and methods for vehicle identification and device communication through directional wireless signaling. A user's device may include a directional wireless transceiver that may be used to provide wireless signaling in a specific target direction. The user may direct the device at a particular vehicle, where the vehicle may has a transceiver located within or attached to the vehicle that responds to the particular wireless signaling. The vehicle's transceiver may respond to the device of the user with a unique identifier that allows for communication with the vehicle's operator. The unique identifier may therefore allow for message content to be sent directly to a device for the vehicle's operator, or may allow for a service provider to process the message. Additionally, the vehicle's operator may establish privacy settings for communications, which may be utilized to determine whether the message content will be provided to the device.
