Always Be A Local
Platform
The Aloqa platform takes a new and innovative approach to solving the issue of real time, privacy aware, multi-body position tracking and notification. Based on our current deployments, we have proven the technology can scale to millions of simultaneously mobile people and objects that have complex inter-relationships that need to be deciphered and tracked in real time. There are three sets of smarts built into the platform:
Monitoring
- Intelligently decide when and how accurately user positioning is needed
- Pre-filter services based on rough positions when tracking multiple users to simplify computation
- Make the service aware of user location only when user follows up on opportunity
- Using "zones" around a user to filter down relevant set of services in the vicinity
- Pre-fetching relevant events for each service the user subscribes to within the user's current zone and as they approach nearby zones
- Matching services to users across the reduced set of locations and services
- Don't wait for the user to initiate a "pull" for information or an event
- Instead, push opportunities to an "always-on location services inbox"
- Allow users to manage levels of intrusiveness of these proactive alerts (ring, vibrate, lights, quiet)
