Abstract: The method and system allow a user to launch a client application on an web-enabled device and subsequently to navigate to an image source screen within the client application. After receiving an image source selection from the user, the client application retrieves images from the selected image source. The client application displays the retrieved images available for printing to a user, and in response to receiving a selection of an image, the client application transmits the image to a proprietary server. Moreover, upon receiving print order information, the client application additionally executes a location awareness application that determines a current location of the web-enabled device and subsequently, determines a proximal retail store to the current location of the web-enabled device. Thereafter, the remote printing system creates and transmits a print order that includes the selected image to the retail store for pickup.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for enhancing an in-store retail experience for a customer by facilitating search queries for products and services available for sale in a retail store. According to certain aspects, an electronic device may receive a search string associated with the retail store and transmit the search string to a server that may execute a corresponding search query. The server may send results from the search query to the electronic device, which may dynamically update an interface accessible by a user. The user may view the information and make appropriate selections.

Abstract: Techniques for providing a seamless user experience across electronic and physical retail stores of a retailer include storing, locally with a session corresponding to a user's visit to the retailer's electronic store, indications of items that were viewed and/or focused on by the user at the electronic store. At least some of said indications may be transferred to a centralized data storage of the retailer for persistence after the session is terminated. Subsequently, an electronic device operated by the user may determine its location and determine, based on its location, a particular physical retail store of the retailer. Via communications with one or more retailer servers, items that were recently viewed by the user at the electronic store may be identified, and indications thereof may be presented on the display of the electronic device in conjunction with information corresponding to the recently viewed items at the particular physical store.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for enhancing an in-store experience for a user of an electronic device. According to certain aspects, the electronic device initiates an in-store mode of an application when the electronic device is located within a retail store, where the in-store mode may enable certain functionalities having certain capabilities. The electronic device may detect when it connects to a network within the retail store and, in response, may indicate enhanced capabilities of the functionalities. The user may select an enhanced capability, and the electronic device may facilitate the associated functionality.

Abstract: The methods and systems may allow a user to launch a client application on an internet-enabled device, and to subsequently navigate to an image capture screen within the client application. In response to receiving a command from a user, the client application may execute a barcode scanning routine to scan a barcode, and that decodes the barcode into prescription label data. Alternatively, the prescription label data may be manually entered by a user. The automatic data access methods and systems may automatically retrieve prescription status data according to the prescription label data. The prescription status data may be indicative of a prescription from a first pharmacy, a prescription from a second pharmacy, or a prescription that has already been filled. The methods and systems either automatically refills the prescription, automatically generates a prescription transfer request, or automatically generates a prescription already filled message, based on the prescription status data.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus, and non-transitory media are disclosed to perform state-based changes on a mobile computing device. A mobile computing device may display one or more images that are indicative of a state of the mobile computing device, such as a barcode. A mobile computing device may measure characteristics of electromagnetic (EM) radiation, such as laser light from a laser scanner, received through its camera. By comparing changes in the intensity of the EM radiation over a time interval and/or a wavelength of the EM radiation to one or more threshold intensities and/or wavelength ranges, one or more trigger conditions may be identified. The one or more trigger conditions may cause the mobile computing device to execute one or more actions, which may be dependent on the present state of the mobile computing device. The actions may include various functions used in conjunction with a retailer-based mobile phone application.
