A system for alerting a user of undesired components in purchase items is provided. The system comprises receiving a list of undesired components of purchased items, and defining an alert to a user of an undesired component in a purchased item, the alert comprising an alert timing configuration and an undesired component identification. The system further comprises receiving a notice that the user purchased an item, determining whether a listing of the purchased item has been automatically collected, and generating a list of components of the purchased item when the purchased item listing has been automatically collected, and obtaining from the user the list of components of the purchased item when the purchased item listing has not been automatically collected. The system further determines whether the purchased item contains an undesired component, and upon determining that the purchased item contains art undesired component, sends the alert to the user.

A store management system includes a first determination unit, a monitoring unit, a settlement unit, a second determination unit, and a generation unit. The first determination unit determines a customer entering a store displaying and selling a commodity. The monitoring unit monitors that the customer determined by the first determination unit carries the commodity. The settlement unit settles price of the commodity monitored by the monitoring unit as being carried by the customer, according to instruction from the customer. The second determination unit determines that the customer leaves the store. The generation unit generates history data including suspicious data indicating that the customer, identified by an identification code, is associated with an unsettled commodity being carried out of the store, when a settlement of the commodity carried by the customer which is determined by the second determination unit as leaving the store has not been completed by the settlement unit.

The disclosed embodiments include computer-implemented systems and processes that generate and provision targeted, criteria-specific digital content based on structured messaging data. For example, an apparatus may receive a message associated with a real-time payment requested from a first counterparty by a second counterparty, and the message includes elements of message data characterizing an exchange of data initiated between the first and second counterparties. The apparatus may determine a value of a first parameter of the initiated data exchange based on the elements of message data, and based on a determined inconsistency between the first parameter value and an execution criterion, the apparatus may transmit a notification that includes product data characterizing an available product to a device operable by the first counterparty for presentation within a digital interface.

A method of presenting product information in a vending machine may include detecting audio information from a consumer and converting the audio information to a text string. The method may include identifying a keyword in the text string, and determining products from a product database associated with the keyword. The method may include returning a list of the products that correspond to the keyword.

A system is disclosed for simultaneous computation of optimal order point and optimal order quantity. The system includes one or more memory units and on ore more processing units, collectively configured to receive initial inputs, initialize a first, at least second and final locations and the initial inputs and compute a first baseline inventory performance of the first level. The system is further configured to compute at least a second inventory performance of the at least second level and perform optimization iterations by simultaneously determining a change in inventory performance for the first and the at least second level when the re-order point (R) is incremented by a specified R increment value and when the re-order quantity is incremented by a specified Q increment value. The system is further configured to report the reorder point and reorder quantity for the first, the at least second, and the final location.

An electronic medication storage cabinet includes a plurality of drawers configured with a plurality of sensors arranged to identify a positioning of storage pockets within the drawers. Upon receiving an indication of a new medicine container to be loaded in the cabinet, a sequence of steps to load the medicine container into the cabinet is generated based on a mapping algorithm. A first step is displayed on a display the cabinet, and a determination is made as to whether the first step is associated with one of the plurality of drawers. In response to determining that the first step is associated with one of the plurality of drawers, the drawer is automatically unlocked. In response to determining that the first step is successfully completed, a determination of whether execution of any additional steps is pending and indicated on the display.

Coordinated conveyors in an automated system. In an embodiment, the system comprises transport conveyor(s) and storage conveyors, wherein each storage conveyor comprises a plurality of segments configured to hold at least one item, and a portion that is aligned with a portion of a transport conveyor, such that items are moveable from the storage conveyor to the transport conveyor. Software module(s), executed by a processor, receive an instruction to collect item(s) at a single destination location, and, for each of the item(s), identify a segment on a storage conveyor on which the item is held, control that storage conveyor to align the segment with the transport conveyor, move the item from the segment onto the transport conveyor, control the transport conveyor to align the item with the destination location, and move the item from the transport conveyor to the destination location.

An item position tracking system includes weight sensors each associated with a weight board. Each weight sensor transmits sensor data indicative of a weight of an item to its corresponding weight board. Each weight board is configured to assign a particular address number to its corresponding weight sensor. The weight boards transmit the sensor data and the address numbers to a circuit board that transmits the sensor data and the address numbers to a weight server. The weight server determines from which weight sensor data is originated based on the address numbers, and whether items were removed from the weight sensors.

A storage organizer includes a storage cabinet having a plurality of storage bins for storing a plurality of items. Each storage bin has a location identifier for identifying a location of the storage bin. The storage organizer also includes an inventory management system for managing the inventory of the items stored inside the storage bins. The inventory management system includes a database having a location of each of the storage bin and a number of items stored inside each storage bin, and a user interface to enable a user to access the database for identifying a location of the storage bin having a desired item and a number of items stored in each storage bin.

A system and method for applications of computer vision in linking users with virtual data that can include detecting digital interaction state of a plurality of subjects in an environment using at least one sensor-based monitoring system; detecting a contextual organization of subjects relative to an operator station; at the operator station, augmenting the user interface based on the contextual organization of subjects which comprises of at least: presenting a set of subject indicators in the user interface with the subject indicators arranged in response to contextual organization, and in response to received user interaction with at least one selected subject indicator, accessing the digital interaction state of the subject associated the at least one subject indicator.
