Publication number: 20250124491Abstract: In one embodiment, a mobile merchandise registration device has a display, an input unit, a communication interface, and a control unit. The control unit is configured to display a first screen on the display listing each merchandise item registered as purchase targets in a sales transaction and receive a cancellation operation, via the input unit, for cancelling the registration of a merchandise item as a purchase target. After receiving a cancellation operation, the control unit displays a cancellation operation confirmation screen on the display which includes sales retention information related to the merchandise item that is a subject of the cancellation operation. If the user confirms the cancellation operation via the confirmation screen, the control unit causes the registration of the item to be cancelled from the sales transaction.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 6, 2024Publication date: April 17, 2025Inventor: Yusuke MINOURA

Patent number: 12279188Abstract: An information processing device comprising a processor configured to determine a first timing designated for a product registered as a purchased product. The processor is also configured to determine a first registration position where the product is designated. The processor is also configured to determine a second timing designated for the product. The processor is also configured to determine a second registration position where the product is designated. The processor is also configured to determine, based on the first timing, the first registration position, the second timing, and the second registration position, a first reliability of the first registration position. The processor is also configured to generate first tracking data relating to the product by associating the second timing, the second registration position, and the first reliability.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2022Date of Patent: April 15, 2025Assignee: TOSHIBA TEC KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Yusuke Minoura

Patent number: 12147225Abstract: To reduce a load on a client terminal that uses a device under control. A first control unit operates the device in response to a device use request from the client terminal. A detection unit detects a failure of the device. A transfer unit transfers, when a failure is detected in an operating device under control of the first control unit, the device use request from the client terminal to another device control apparatus connected via the network. A second control unit operates, when the device use request is received from the other device control apparatus via the communication interface, the device in response to the request.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2021Date of Patent: November 19, 2024Assignee: TOSHIBA TEC KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Yusuke Minoura

Patent number: 12125020Abstract: According to one embodiment, a transaction processing system for retail stores that sell optionally deliverable commodities includes a communication network connectable to a mobile user terminal permitting a customer to register items for purchase on a sales floor of a store. A transaction processing server stories commodity codes for items sold by the store. Each commodity code is associated with a deliverable flag indicating whether the item is deliverable. A processor of the server is configured to: determine whether a registered commodity code is a deliverable commodity based on the deliverable flag value associated with the registered commodity code; cause the mobile user terminal to display a decision screen for receiving a selection input from the customer to have the item delivered or not; and register the customer's selection in conjunction with the registered commodity code to permit settlement of the sales transaction including the deliverable commodity.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2023Date of Patent: October 22, 2024Assignee: Toshiba Tec Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Yusuke Minoura

Publication number: 20240193632Abstract: An information processing device for store management includes a storage unit and a control unit. The control unit calculates congestion values for a store based on the number of occupied seats and the total number of seats in the store, identifies whether the store is in an off-peak state based on a congestion value, and acquire information indicating whether an item ordered by a customer has already been provided to the customer. The control unit determines based on the acquired provision information whether all ordered items for a table have been provided. When the store is in the off-peak state, the control unit causes a coupon to be transmitted to the table for which all ordered items have already been provided to the customers. The coupon grants a privilege associated with the placing of an additional order for an item during the present store visit.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2023Publication date: June 13, 2024Inventor: Yusuke MINOURA

Patent number: 11647093Abstract: A server device includes a communication interface configured to communicate with one or more publisher devices and one or more subscriber devices. A memory stores data indicating message types to be issued by the publisher devices. Each message type is stored in association with both a condition for filtering messages of the message type and a subscriber device destination for messages of the message type meeting the condition. A processor is configured to determine whether a message meets a condition associated with the message type, and transmit the message to the subscriber devices indicated by the corresponding destination information when the condition is met.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2021Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: Toshiba Tec Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Yusuke Minoura
