When the phones come into close proximity with each other, they verify that they have common identification data, and then emit audible messages. For example, when two Georgia Tech fans can program their cellular phones with the “Tech identifying code”. The first may program “Go Jackets!”, while the other may program “Sting 'em!”. When the fans' phones come into close proximity in a crowd, their phones acknowledge each other by recognizing the identification code. Once verified, the first phone would emit “Go Jackets!” while the second emits “Sting 'em!” Alternatively, the phones could play parts of the Georgia Tech fight song, with one phone starting the chorus with “I'm a Ramblin' Reck from Georgia Tech . . .” and the other following with “. . . and a helluva engineer!” | |
