  • Patent number: 11687879
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for querying a digital twin marketplace for digital twins relevant to a work order and delivering said digital twins to a mobile computing device. A query for digital twins on a digital twin marketplace is generated using a workorder, followed by an availability assessment to determine the availability of the queried digital twins to a querying user. When a queried digital twin is available to the querying user, the queried digital twin is provided to a mobile computing device associated with the querying user. Querying and providing digital twins in this manner streamlines the determination and provision of digital twin assets to work order responders in-situ.

  • Publication number: 20230186445
    Abstract: In an embodiment of the present invention, imagery of a geographic area is received from an image capture system. The imagery includes an obscurity impeding visibility. A geographic region within the geographic area is determined corresponding to a location of the obscurity. The image capture system is requested to capture new imagery of the geographic region at a time determined based on information including weather patterns. The new imagery of the geographic region is combined with the imagery of the geographic area to produce resulting imagery resolving the obscurity.

  • Patent number: 11620610
    Abstract: A buy-online pickup-in-store (BOPIS) order at risk of abandonment is saved by converting the order to same-day delivery. A risk deadline is established using a combination of cognitive prediction, a customer-specific time frame, order constraints, and real-time data. The cognitive prediction uses a customer profile having historical data pertaining to previous BOPIS orders from this customer. If the product is not picked up by the risk deadline, a check is made to see if same-day delivery is feasible. If so, a notification is transmitted to the customer with proposed delivery details. The notification can be sent at an optimal time based on previous notifications sent to the customer and time constraints related to the order, and using an optimal communication channel based on previous engagement rates with the customer over different communication channels. Once confirmation is received from the customer, the product is shipped, saving the sale.
