Abstract: A system may include a sensor, a display, and a processor. The sensor may generate sensor data based on a factor of the system. The display may display an animated face of an artificial intelligence (AI) agent. The processor may be coupled to the sensor and the display. The processor may determine an orientation of the system based on the sensor data. The processor may also determine an orientation of a face of a user relative to the system based on the sensor data. IN addition, the processor may control rotation of the animated face on the display based on the orientation of the system and the orientation of the face of the user to maintain a consistent orientation of the animated face on the display relative to the face of the user.

Abstract: A device for extended reality may include a sensor, a tracking sensor, a display, a processor, and a control mechanism. The sensor may generate image data representative of a physical environment of the device. The tracking sensor may determine movement of the device within the physical environment. The display may show a view of an extended reality environment. The processor may control the view of the extended reality environment based on the image data, the determined movement of the device, and a position of the device within the physical environment. The control mechanism may obtain user input that is effective to interact with the extended reality environment.

Abstract: A method of shopping within an electronic commerce environment includes enabling a first user of a plurality of users to add one or more items to a virtual shopping cart of the first user that is maintained by a server computer system, generating, by the server computer system, statistical data related to the one or more items, and providing the statistical data to the first user in a web page that is generated by the server computer system. The statistical data includes a total quantity of at least one of the one or more items that are contained in the virtual shopping carts of all of the plurality of users.

Abstract: A system and method for selling product is provided. In accordance with one aspect, shoppers using an Internet-based commerce site may request custom designed products rather than mass produced products from willing sellers. Shoppers may provide terms under which the custom good must be manufactured. Various systems and methods may also provide a platform for shoppers and sellers to negotiate terms and/or to incorporate negotiated terms into such requests. According to some embodiments, the system and method for selling product facilitates fabrication, delivery and payment for customized goods. In one embodiment, requests for customized goods may be fulfilled by multiple sellers. One example includes multiple sellers fulfilling a custom request, and another includes multiple sellers each producing a part of a desired quantity for a custom request, among other options. One aspect also includes allowing shoppers to request custom made products from one or more manufacturers.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes prompting a first user to select one or more images representing merchandise items, receiving one or more image selections from the first user through the user interface, and determining a shopping preference of the first user based, at least in part, on the image selections. The shopping preference of the first user includes information about the merchandise items represented by the image selections. The method further includes identifying a second user having a shopping preference that is substantially similar to the shopping preference of the first user. The shopping preference of the second user includes information about one or more preferred merchandise items of the second user. The method further includes generating at least one shopping recommendation based on the shopping preference of the second user, and presenting the shopping recommendation to the first user.
