The iconic Mall of America shopping complex has installed indoor positioning system (IPS), StepInside, with the help of industry leader Senion. The technology, which works like GPS for indoor locations, is designed to help the mall enhance its visitor experiences by directing visitors to their desired retail, restaurant, or entertainment destination within the complex through an app on their mobile devices.
