  • Patent number: 12254525
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing a signaling location beacon are provided. Specifically, a collection location for collecting, by an agent, an item is determined. Also, a physical beacon associated with the pickup location can be identified. Further, an interaction between the physical beacon and the agent can be detected. For example, the interaction can occur based on the physical beacon and the agent being in physical proximity to each other during a process of the agent collecting the item at the collection location. As follows, in response to the interaction, transmission of a sensory signal to the agent can be facilitated to provide perceivable direction information associated with the physical location to the agent. The sensory signal can be specific to the agent based on the interaction between the physical beacon and the agent.

  • Patent number: 11861755
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing a signaling location beacon are provided. Specifically, a physical location for transferring a delivery from a delivery person to a customer can be determined. Also, a physical beacon associated with the physical location can be identified. Further, an interaction between the physical beacon and the delivery person can be detected. For example, the interaction can occur based on the physical beacon and the delivery person being in physical proximity to each other. As follows, in response to the interaction, transmission of a sensory signal to the delivery person can be facilitated to provide perceivable direction information associated with the physical location to the delivery person.

  • Patent number: 6595586
    Abstract: a seating structure provides improved comfort and includes a single, pair, or multiple numbers of moving seating assemblies with independent platforms, especially suited for the automotive or aircraft seating environments. A motion mechanism provides each seating assembly with at least one of total rocking, vertical up and down movement, lateral, and limited slight turning movement and in one embodiment generally constrains the seat members of the seat assemblies from interference with each other. The seating assemblies are provided at a neutral angle that corresponds to the particular application of the seat. Independent up and down movement, and rocking, improves seating comfort health, and safety especially as applied to a seating environment, where a user is likely to be seated for an extended period, such as in an automobile or aircraft.

  • Patent number: 6357827
    Abstract: A portable seat provides improved comfort and includes a single, pair, or multiple numbers of moving seating assemblies. A motion mechanism provides each seating assembly with at least one of total rocking, vertical, lateral, and turning movement and in one embodiment generally constrains the seat members of the seat assemblies from interference with each other. The seating assemblies are provided at a neutral angle that corresponds to the particular application of the seat. The amount of rocking movement and/or vertical movement is based on the neutral angle. In concert, the neutral angle orientation, rocking movement, and vertical movement cause the weight supported by an occupant's seat bones, posterior, and thighs to be optimally distributed on the seating assembly, improving seating comfort as applied to a given seating environment.
