Abstract: Systems and methods for recommending merchant actions include a physical merchant location having a plurality of beacon devices. A system provider device receives a plurality of first location information from the plurality of beacon devices that is collected from a customer beacon communication device that is associated with a customer. The system provider device also receives a plurality of second location information over the network from the plurality of beacon devices that is collected from a merchant beacon communication device that is associated with an asset of the merchant. The system provider device analyzes the plurality of first location information and the plurality of second location information to determine at least one merchant action recommendation related to the customer and the asset of the merchant and provides the at least one merchant action recommendation over the network for display on a display device.

Abstract: Techniques are described for facilitating access of computing system users to restricted or other functionality, such as internal functionality of a business or other organization. The functionality access may be facilitated by an access provider system that executes on a client computing system of an authorized user, such as a program operating in conjunction with another presentation program that presents publicly available information by modifying interactions available to the user when using the presentation program or otherwise providing additional information to the user. In some situations, the additional information is provided by temporarily modifying the information being presented by the presentation program, such as to provide additional information that is related to functionality corresponding to a subject area of the currently presented information and/or corresponding to an aspect of the currently presented information that is indicated by the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying information on a wearable user device include determining calibration information based on user actions and information from images captured by a camera on a wearable user device. A field of view calibration may then be performed on a display engine in the wearable user device using the calibration information. Graphical information may then be displayed on a display device on the wearable user device according to a user field of view using the display engine in the wearable user. Field of view calibrations may be performed using calibration information that is based on: a user's head range of motion such that displayed graphical information conforms to that head range of motion, calibration objects by themselves that indicate a user's perspective in a user field of view, and calibration objects that allow the size of a user's hands to be determined and used to measure objects.

Abstract: A system and method for providing the dynamic display of content and related advertisements are provided. The advertisements are displayed based on predetermined customer types. A network resource, such as Web page, can include a plurality of dynamic content modules. Depending on the available display area and additional display criteria, each dynamic content module displays a subset content and related advertisements. Each dynamic content module corresponds to an integration of multiple layers of content, such as text, graphics and image rendering information.

Abstract: A method and a system to provide information to consumers are provided. A code identification module may receive one or more scanned machine-readable codes. The code identification may further identify respective descriptions of the items corresponding to the one or more scanned machine-readable codes. An incentive generation module may provide to a user an incentive interface depicting a first description of a first set of incentives available with the purchase of a first item corresponding to a first scanned machine-readable code and second description of a second set of incentives available with the purchase of a second item corresponding to a second scanned machine-readable code.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves a method comprising: determining a location of a user inside a facility; accessing an information map of the facility based on at least one of: electronic scans of items in the facility made by the user and a planogram; and offering a service based on the information map and the location of the user. The present disclosure also involves an electronic device comprising: an interface for receiving an input from a user and communicating an output to the user; a transceiver for electronically communicating with external devices; a computer processor for executing instructions; and a memory storage for storing the instructions, the memory storage further comprising a program module for: constructing a map of a facility in response to purchases made by the user; and offering a service in response to a location of the user and a shopping history of the user.

Abstract: A service provider provides one or more “best” total value suggestions for one or more items specified by a user. The suggestions are based on one or more of user preferences, user location, available funding options, available local merchant incentives, available manufacturer incentives, and local merchants offering the item. In one embodiment, the “best” total value is the lowest price available to the user. The user may make a purchase using a suggestion or a revised suggestion.
