Abstract: An operation management system is disclosed. The operation management system may receive a video stream from a wearable device of a user that is performing an operation in a physical environment. The operation management system may process, using an operation performance model, a set of frames of the video stream that indicates a state of a performance of the operation by the user. The operation management system may determine, based on the state of the performance by the user, a next task of the operation. The operation management system may configure display data that is associated with a physical object that is associated with the next task. The display data may be associated with an indicator that identifies the physical object and/or task information associated with performing the next task. The operation management system may provide the display data to the wearable device.

Abstract: Fulfillment guidance devices, systems, and methods are disclosed herein. An example device includes a memory; a communications interface; and a processor to: obtain, from a location tracking system deployed in a facility containing items of a plurality of item types, current locations for each of the items; select a subset of the items having a common type, and satisfying a proximity criterion; generate and store, in the memory, an item cluster definition having a type indicator corresponding to the common type, a count of items in the subset, and a single cluster location derived from the current locations of the items in the subset; obtain an item request including one of the item types; determine that the one of the item types matches the type indicator of the cluster definition; responsive to the determination, send at least a portion of the cluster definition to a mobile device within the facility.

Abstract: A patient unique identifier system is provided. An example system includes a database storing patient information; a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag associated with a patient, the RFID tag storing an indication of an identification of the patient and encrypted biometric data captured by sensors of a wearable device worn by the patient; and an RFID reader device configured to: read the RFID tag and retrieve, based on reading the RFID tag, the indication of the identification of the patient and the encrypted biometric data without decrypting the encrypted biometric data; send the encrypted biometric data to a server to be decrypted and stored in the database; access patient information associated with stored in the database based on the retrieved indication of the identification of the patient; and provide the information associated with the patient to a user of the RFID reader device.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for dimensioning an object by enlisting proximate devices to obtain image data representative of the object from multiple perspectives are provided. An example method includes capturing, by a first image capture device, first image data representative of an object from a first perspective; determining whether a second image capture device is within proximity of the first image capture device; and when the second image capture device is within proximity of the first image capture device, sending a request to the second image capture device for second image data representative of the object from a second perspective, wherein the first image data and the second image data are combinable to form a composite representative of the object.

Abstract: A system includes: a holder having a plurality of bays each configured to support a respective one of a plurality of electronic devices, and a notification assembly associated with the plurality of bays; a computing device connected with the holder and having a processor configured to: obtain an operator identifier, obtain status information for each of the plurality of electronic devices, based on the status information, select one of the plurality of electronic devices; and send, to the holder, an identifier of the selected electronic device and a configuration profile corresponding to the operator identifier; wherein the holder is configured, in response to receipt of the identifier of the selected electronic device and the configuration profile, to: deploy the configuration profile to the selected electronic device via a corresponding one of the bays, and activate the notification assembly to indicate the corresponding one of the bays to the operator.
