Abstract:
In some examples, a server may receive a first order to acquire a product. The server may receive a request to cancel the first order and determine that the product has been shipped. The server may determine, based on sensor data received from a sensor in the container, that the container is unopened. After receiving a second order to ship the product to a second location, the server may instruct a courier to transport the product to the second location. For example, if the container is located at the first location, the server may instruct the courier to transport the container from the first location to the second location. If the server determines that the courier is currently transporting the container to the first location, the server may instruct the courier to transport the container to the second location instead of to the first location.
