If you tend to forget where you are, Intelligent Spatial Technologies has the answer for you. They’re a leading developer of location-based services for mobile users, and they have launched a unique mobile local search and content delivery platform that allows users to search the internet or query databases simply by pointing a wireless phone or other mobile device at a building, landmark, or point of interest. When users wish to identify a landmark, they point the hand-held device and press a button. The iPointe device receives coordinate signals from GPS satellites and orientation information from the digital magnetic compass to identify the user’s location and device’s pointing angle.
