kandi X-RAY | physical-web Summary

physical-web is a Java library typically used in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. physical-web has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has medium support. However physical-web has 20 bugs and it build file is not available. You can download it from GitHub.

The Physical Web is an effort to extend the superpower of the web - the URL - to everyday physical objects. Our premise is that you should be able to walk up to any “smart” physical object (e.g. a vending machine, a poster, a toy, a bus stop, a rental car) and interact with it without first downloading an app. The user experience of smart objects should be much like links in a web browser, just tap and use. At its base, the Physical Web is a discovery service: a smart object broadcasts relevant URLs that any nearby device can receive. This simple capability can unlock exciting new ways to interact with the Web.

Well from your Question I came up with an analogy hope it would help you to find your answer. As you were asking that why does it need location I think as Physical web itself describes as "an open approach to enable quick and seamless interactions with physical objects and locations." it clearly says that to communicate with nearby objects you must have your location to be identified to that object. It might be an idea to use this location and the location of other object to see that how far are they from each other.

for your reference have a look at below link hope it might help you find your solution: https://bkon.com/resources/physical-web/
