Philip has created a new intelligent lighting system that will let users and retailers pinpoint their exact location indoors. The new technology will use the light, a phones camera, and dedicated software that can be easily built into any app, to track customers as they move around a shop, museum or office building. Philips hopes that it will be able to use the intelligent lights to help people find things as if they were using standard GPS outside, or to offer people special offers as they walk past them.
