Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods and systems for implementing a visit- based loyalty rewards program. Disclosed is a system that includes location detection devices placed throughout a retail store that are used in conjunction with a mobile device carried by a customer to determine the presence, duration, path, and location of the customer device, and hence the customer, in the retail store. A retail store server is used to store customer information, including the customer visits, the length of customer visits, and the path taken by the customer through the retail store. A loyalty reward is calculated based upon at least one customer visit and at least one customer purchase. The loyalty reward is then awarded to the customer.

Abstract: A system comprises a delivery entity operating to deliver a package at a predetermined time from a first person to a second person and to provide an electronic communication between the first person and the second person that is commensurate with the delivery. An electronic display for displays a first message of the electronic communication from the first person to the second person commensurate with the predetermined time of the delivery of the package to the second person and a transmitter configured to generate and output a second message of the electronic communication generated by the second person during delivery of the package and in response to the displayed first message. An exception handling device controls the delivery entity when an unexpected event disrupts the commensurate delivery with the electronic communication, and generates and outputs instructions to the delivery entity to change the predetermined delivery time to a new delivery time.

Abstract: An unmanned autonomous vehicle is configured to delivery packages in a product delivery network. The vehicle includes an outer housing, a conversion circuit, a battery, and a control circuit. The outer housing includes a first layer that is configured to collect solar radiation, and a second layer that is configured to render a visual display. The conversion circuit is disposed within the outer housing, and is coupled to the first layer. The conversion circuit is configured to convert the collected solar radiation to electrical charge and store the charge in a battery. The control circuit is coupled to the second layer and is configured to independently determine one or more images to render at the second layer, and to cause the one or more images to be rendered at the second layer. The solar radiation is collected at the first layer simultaneously with the images being rendered at the second layer.
