Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems include a processor(s) obtaining and decoding a signal of decodable indicia. The decoded data identifies an object comprising a plurality of items. The processor(s) obtains from a memory, a visual representation the object and descriptive text characterizing the object, including quantitative inventory data. The processor(s) displays the visual representation as a three-dimensional image and the descriptive text, via a device (e.g., an augmented reality device and a virtual reality device). The processor(s) obtains, via a user interface, a designation of at least one item in the visual representation of the object. The processor(s) execute an action that changes an element of the descriptive text. The processor(s) updates concurrently with the executing, the descriptive text in the visual representation to reflect the changed quantitative or qualitative element. The processor(s) deploys an unmanned aerial device (UAV) to locate the at least one item.
