The initiative is run under the UAE based startup Smart Navigation SystemThe solution is delivered as an Internet based service with two client interfaces:

A mobile phone based consumer application for positioning, way-finding and information
A control panel application for the venue and shop owners for entering and maintaining data about shops, products, information and campaigns as well as accessing the analytical data and information about the venue visitor’s behavior
