A beacon is any device that transmits a
signal which allows another device to determine its
proximity to the broadcaster. In a store, a beacon
lets a customer’s app determine that it’s close to
the candy aisle. The beacon doesn’t transmit
content, it simply transmits a signal that lets a user’
s phone or tablet figure out what its proximity to the
beacon. The content (a coupon, for example) is
delivered separately to the user’s app.
