Cool stuff guys. Quick question: how much of an adoption are you expecting for iBeacon compliant stuff in say, the next 2 years amongst small and medium retailers? Or is it more of a large retail play?
- pothash 12y agoFor starters, we expect this to be more geared towards larger players, since we the business needs to invest in an app. Having said that the use-cases for beacons definitely go beyond just retail across various industry verticals and we expect this to be driven by developers.
- ravipratapm 12y agoGlad you like it! From what we're seeing, there's very clear interest in beacons across a wide variety of verticals - hotels, events, museums, etc. Retail is definitely one of the significant verticals but not the only one. That's also one of the reasons Beaconstac is a developer-led platform with SDKs & REST APIs - we think it is best to let developers figure out how to add proximity-based applications to the verticals they work in.
