Patent number: 10068262Abstract: A server receives over a network from a mobile computing device recipient reaction information. The recipient reaction information includes encoded information obtained by the mobile computing device. The encoded information is obtained by the mobile computing device from a machine-readable representation of the encoded information affixed to a physical package. The server associates the recipient reaction information to a record for a transaction. The physical package contains at least a first product shipped as part of the transaction. The associating is performed using the encoded information. The server transmits to the mobile computing device transaction information. The transaction information is usable to perform a user interaction function related to the transaction via the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2010Date of Patent: September 4, 2018Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Lakshmi S. Nidamarthi, Jerry Wong, Hardik B. Doshi, Charley Ames, Brock A. Judkins, Gregory D. Lewis, Chris H. Li

Patent number: 8444048Abstract: A computer generates encoded information to associate a physical package to a transaction. The transaction comprises an order for one or more items to be shipped in the package. The encoded information is provided for inclusion in a machine-readable representation of the encoded information for shipping with the physical package. Subsequent to delivery of the physical package to a recipient, recipient reaction information containing the encoded information obtained from the machine-readable representation is received over a network. The encoded information is used to associate the recipient reaction information to a record for the transaction.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2010Date of Patent: May 21, 2013Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Lakshmi S. Nidamarthi, Jerry Wong, Hardik B. Doshi, Charley Ames, Brock A. Judkins, Gregory D. Lewis, Chris H. Li

Patent number: 8413882Abstract: An application executing on a mobile computing device retrieves encoded information from a physical package by invoking a scanning function of the mobile computing device. The encoded information associates the physical package with a transaction. The mobile computing device transmits, using the encoded information, an item of recipient reaction information to a server at a network location. The mobile computing device receives from the server an item of transaction information associated with the transaction. The item of transaction information is usable by the application to perform a user interaction function related to the transaction. The mobile computing device performs the user interaction function.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2010Date of Patent: April 9, 2013Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Lakshmi S.
