Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve an apparatus, systems, and methods for providing intelligent laundering alerts. Example embodiments involve an intelligent garment tag that may be affixed to garments, and may store and provide information about the garment to which it is affixed. The information stored thereon describes various aspects of the garment including color, fabric, and laundering information. The intelligent garment tags further include an alert component for providing laundering alerts (e.g., a flashing or colored light, a warning noise, or a vibration) based on, for example, garment color compatibility or laundering device (e.g., washing machine or clothes dryer) compatibility.

Abstract: A system comprising a machine-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a computer-implemented method for collecting body measurements of a human user using a body measurement garment is provided. The body measurement garment comprises a plurality of sensors configured to produce a set of output data. The method may include receiving the set of output data from the body measurement garment and determining a plurality of body measurements from the output data. The method may further include generating a body shape model representing the shape of the body of the user. The method may also include generating a garment fit model representing the fit of a garment on the human user.

Abstract: A system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a computer-implemented method for simulating the fit of a particular garment on a user using a fit simulation garment. The fit simulation garment is wearable by a user and comprises a plurality of actuators configured to simulate tightness of regions of the particular garment. The method includes receiving a garment fit model defining the fit of the particular garment on the user. The method further includes parsing the garment fit model to generate control data for controlling the fit simulation garment, and transmitting the control data to the fit simulation garment to cause the plurality of actuators to collectively simulate the fit of the particular garment on the user.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure include a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a computer-implemented method for determining a clothing size of a child. Consistent with some embodiments, the method may include obtaining at least one image of the child, and deriving one or more previous body measurements from the at least one image. The method further includes determining one or more current body measurements of the child based on the previous body measurements, and using the one or more current body measurements to determine the clothing size of the child.

Abstract: Systems, methods and media for managing digital rights and pre-verification of structural integrity in three-dimensional (3D) printing are provided. In one example, a system comprises at least one module, executing on one or more computer processors, to receive a request from a user to print a 3D object by a 3D printer or printing service and receive a conditional authorization from an owner of digital rights in the 3D object to print the 3D object. The conditional authorization can include a printing specification or limitation. The at least one module pre-verifies, for structural integrity once printed by the 3D printer or printing service, a digital model on which the 3D object is based. In response to a received conditional authorization, the at least one module transmits instructions to the 3D printer or printing service to print the 3D object.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and media for three-dimensional (3D) printing are provided. In one example, a system comprises a data access module configured to receive data from a client device, the data including a two-dimensional image of a part; an identification module to identify the part based on the received data, or to receive an identification of the part included in the received data; a database storing a three-dimensional digital file of the identified part; a controller module, in communication with the database, to retrieve the three-dimensional digital file of the identified part from the database; and a transmission module to transmit the three-dimensional digital file to the client device, or to a 3D printer.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, location information is received from a plurality of mobile devices operated by on-duty valets. An online order for local delivery of an item to a consumer is received. A current location of the consumer is determined. A store having a least transit time from the current location of the consumer that has the item in stock is determined. Then, a valet having a least transit time to the determined store is determined. A job may be assigned to the valet having the least transit time to the determined store.

Abstract: Systems and methods to deliver goods to a buyer that is dynamically located are described. The system communicates a user interface to a device that is identified as being located at a first location and associated with a customer. The user interface includes items that are identified as being located within a predetermined distance from the device. The system receives an order from the device that authorizes the purchase of an item and delivery of the item to the customer. The system automatically selects a courier from a plurality of couriers that are identified as being located at different locations. The system communicates a user interface to a courier mobile device that includes instructions to enable the courier to retrieve the item from a second location and deliver the item to the first location.
