Abstract
Techniques are described for managing the generation, style, and/or distribution of digital contact cards. An organization may access a card management platform and upload style information for digital contact card(s). Style information may include an arrangement and/or layout of the card(s), an organization name and/or logo to be included on the card(s), the font, color, size, or other characteristics of the text on the card(s), and so forth. A user may access the platform to request the distribution of a digital contact card to recipient(s). In response to the request, the platform may generate a digital contact card for the user based on the previously specified style information, and distribute card(s) to the specified recipient(s). Techniques are also described for determining positions of various mobile devices (and associated users) in a room or other area, and presenting received contact card information in a user interface according to the determined positions.
