摘要： In some embodiments, systems and methods are provided herein useful to enable delivery of retail products along product delivery routes to recipients. In some embodiments, autonomous product delivery systems are provided to enable delivery of retail products, and comprises: an autonomous ground vehicle ("AGV") on a product delivery route. The AGV includes control circuits, sensors in electrical communication with the control circuits and configured to communicate sensor data to the control circuits, and emitters in electrical communication with the control circuits and configured to emit irritants. The control circuits use sensor data to detect the presence of an object having a relationship to parameters defining a known hostile third party, detect the presence of a hostile third party positioned within a threshold distance relative to the AGV, determine that the hostile third party is interfering with an operation of the AGV, and activate the emitter in response to the determination.

摘要： An apparatus comprises a virtual-reality user interface, a memory containing virtual-reality presentation information for a plurality of items available for retail sale as well as information including a plurality of partiality vectors for a particular customer, and a control circuit that operably couples to both the virtual-reality user interface and the memory. The control circuit selects a particular one of the plurality of items to present to the customer via the virtual-reality user interface as a function, at least in part, of the partiality vectors. The virtual-reality user interface can include, for example, an audio-content user interface and/or an active haptic-content user interface along with a visual interface. By one approach the control circuit presents particular ones of the plurality of items in an order of presentation that begins with a product that best accords with the customer's partiality vectors.

摘要： A control circuit determines a reception parameter for an RFID tag that is attached to an object (such as an ice pack) and then determines a frozen state of the object as a function of that reception parameter. By one approach the RFID tag provides a transmission to support the aforementioned determinations, which transmission provides no data that explicitly represents temperature. The reception parameter can comprise, for example, an indication of received signal strength. So configured, a relatively higher indication of received signal strength can serve to determine that the object is and/or remains at least substantially frozen while a relatively lower indication of received signal strength can serve to determine that the object is not at least substantially frozen.

摘要： These teachings generally comprise interrogating RFID tags and receiving corresponding responses from various ones of these RFID tags while also receiving, from a remote source, surrogate response corresponding to at least some of the plurality of RFID tags that are not responding to the current interrogation. A corresponding plurality of end user-perceivable indications as correspond to both the responses from various ones of the plurality of RFID tags and the aforementioned surrogate responses are then provided to thereby ultimately inform an end user of the RFID tag reader with respect to a corresponding reading state as regards the plurality of RFID tags.
