Patent number: 9971154Abstract: A wearable computer device may include multiple imaging devices or other sensors working in concert to recognize conditions, objects or areas of an environment in which the wearable computer device is situated. The device may include a imaging device and a sensor, which may but need not be a imaging device, for sensing and capturing information regarding the environment. The sensor may be configured to perform one or more specific tasks, such as recognizing particular items, and the imaging device may be generally configured to perform multiple tasks. Upon the execution of a specific task by the sensor, information or instructions regarding the specific task may be provided to a wearer of the device, or may cause the imaging device to automatically operate to gather further information. Such information gathered from the imaging device or the sensor may be provided to the user, such as on a computer display mounted to the device.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2015Date of Patent: May 15, 2018Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Fareed Adib Qaddoura

Patent number: 9612583Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for managing packing containers for shipping items. A system obtains a container dimension of a container and an item dimension of an item to be shipped in the container. The system determines a target amount of dunnage based at least upon the container dimension and item dimension, the dunnage being configured to be packed into the container to protect the item during shipment, the dunnage being dispensed by a dispenser. The system instructs the dispenser to dispense the target amount of dunnage for the container.Type: GrantFiled: June 11, 2013Date of Patent: April 4, 2017Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Fareed Adib Qaddoura

Patent number: 9514345Abstract: Wearable scanners or readers may be mounted to and operated from at least one extension of the human body, such as a portion of a hand or wrist of a user. The wearable scanners or readers may include one or more manual or automatic actuators for initiating a scanning or reading of a marking on an object. Such actuators may be worn about the portion of the hand or wrist of the user, including within a palm of the hand, or in a ring-like device surrounding at least one finger of the hand. Additionally, the wearable scanners or readers may include optical elements configured to capture images in one or more directions or along one or more axes, and may further include any type of display elements (e.g., touchscreens, LED or LCD displays, or electrophoretic displays) formed in substantially flat or curved shapes.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2016Date of Patent: December 6, 2016Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Fareed Adib Qaddoura, Keith Francis Deacon, Mohan Krishna Rao
