Publication number: 20240086902Abstract: A method of retail engagement includes receiving a worn article from a user in a retail establishment, where the worn article includes dirt or debris on an outer surface of the article. The method then includes robotically cleaning the worn article to at least partially remove the dirt or debris on the outer surface. The cleaning comprises contacting the shoe with a rotating brush, and at least one of the worn article or the rotating brush is robotically manipulated to cause the contacting. Finally, the outer surface of the article may be adorned with one or more adornments, where the one or more adornments are selected by the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Applicant: NIKE, Inc.Inventors: Christopher Andon, Noah Murphy-Reinhertz, James Zormeir, Julian Ingur Johannes Boettger, Florian Jasper Thorge Born, José Francisco Martins Damasceno Costa, Adrien Yves Pierre Hobt, Markus Kison, Moritz Jules Koch, Christian Kokott, Dev Mishra
