Abstract: Systems and methods for aiding, supplementing, and/or increasing the monitoring capabilities of responsible persons over a supervised person are disclosed herein. In some implementations, the system includes one or more controlling persons, one or more supervising persons, a supervised person, and a cloud server. Each of the controlling persons and the supervising persons can have a personal electronic device. The supervised person can have a wearable electronic device. The electronic devices allow the controlling persons and the supervising persons to actively communicate with the cloud server to upload data related to the supervised person that is accessibly stored in the cloud server. In turn, the wearable device can include one or more sensors to measure and communicate various bioindicators to the cloud server. The system allows the controlling persons to monitor the health of, development of, and/or current control over the supervised person.

Abstract: Embodiments provide for systems and methods related to kiosks for personalizing a packaged article. The kiosks may also be used for storage, inventory management, retrieval, packaging, and/or personalization of packaged articles.

Abstract: A direct-to-garment personalization system for personalizing an article includes a direct-to-garment printer configured to print a graphic onto the article, wherein the article is assembled with a packaging to form a packaged article. The packaging has a left joint having a body portion and a neck portion; a right joint having a body portion and a neck portion; and a plurality of expansion joints pivotally connecting the body portion of the left joint to the body portion of the right joint. The plurality of expansion joints are configured to move the left and right joints between a retracted position and an expansion position. When in the expanded position, the frame is configured to keep the article taut for printing. The system also includes a storage area housing the packaged article; and a transfer system configured to retrieve the packaged article from the storage area and move the article to the direct-to-garment printer.

Abstract: Embodiments provide for systems and methods related to kiosks for personalizing a packaged article. The kiosks may also be used for storage, inventory management, retrieval, packaging, and/or personalization of packaged articles.
