Beacon technology company Estimote is launching an innovative new smart beacon system, dubbed Mirror, that is designed to make it possible to turn any old TV display into a high-tech smart beacon system.
Dubbed 'Mirror', this smart beacon system includes its own video processing unit as well as Bluetooth and WiFi modules. The Bluetooth Low Energy sensor enables the system to detect smartphones nearby, so that personalized and relevant information can be relayed over to the user's device display.
