Patent attributes
A merchant may operate a retail store that users are able to visit in person in order to view and purchase products. When a user visits the store, the user might not know where a desired product (“target product”) is located. Computer technology may help direct the user to the target product in real-time. In some embodiments, a model of passable areas and the location of products in the retail store may be determined, e.g. by a merchant device. In some embodiments, when the user visits the retail store, a computer generates a product recommendation, e.g. based on user-specific information, and a route in the retail store is determined for the user. In some embodiments, the route in the retail store may be determined using the model based on the target product, the user's location in the store, and one or more recommended products.
