In this chapter we present an approach on how orientation sensors built into mobile devices can enable a new paradigm for mobile service discovery and use. In conjunction with 3D models of urban terrain, mobile devices can act as virtual pointers to services and information anchored at specific locations such as buildings or landmarks. We outline a system architecture that enables this new method of orientation and location sensitive service discovery to be employed. We describe our experiences with a prototype device consisting of a plain, mass market mobile phone and a custom-built shell that houses a magnetic compass and a 2-axis tilt sensor. We conclude by describing our ongoing research project that will apply the concepts and practical technologies described.
