Skidattl’s augmented reality beacons

According to TechCrunch, "Skidattl aims to use AR “beacons” to show people what’s going on around them.
Randy Marsden, Skidattl co-founder, said they will be like “a Bat-Signal for fun” once the app launches.
Anyone can make a beacon and anyone can see them. Businesses might set up beacons, which have a one-hour life span, to advertise two-for-one coffee sales, movie times or open bowling lanes.
People might shoot up a beacon at a music festival to help their friends find them in the crowd. All a user would have to do is scan the horizon with their phone, or eventually with AR glasses, to see an array of beacons at up to 100 yards of distance, said Marsden."
