SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF ENABLING RETAIL SHOPPING WHILE DISABLING COMPONENTS BASED ON LOCATION
In some embodiments, systems provide a customized retail shopping experience, comprising: a plurality of active shutter glasses systems (SGS) each comprising controllable lenses, wherein a first SGS is controlled to operate at a first frame profile to make a first content visible to a first customer, and a second SGS is controlled to operate at a different second frame profile to make a second content visible to the second customer; and a control circuit configured to: identify that the first SGS is located beyond a first threshold corresponding to the shopping facility; and cause the first SGS to be disabled when beyond the first threshold.
1 . A system providing a customized retail shopping experience, comprising:
a plurality of active shutter glasses systems (SGS) each comprising controllable lenses, wherein each of the SGS is configured to selectively control rates of when one or both of the lenses are opaque and when one or both of the lenses are transparent, wherein a first SGS of the plurality of SGSs is associated with a first customer while at the shopping facility and a second SGS of the plurality of SGSs is associated with a second customer while at the shopping facility; wherein the first SGS operates at a first frame profile at which the first SGS is to make a first content, intended for the first customer, visible to the first customer, and the second SGS operates at a different second frame profile at which the second SGS is to make a second content, intended for the second customer, visible to the second customer; wherein the first SGS based on the first frame profile prevents the first customer from seeing the second content and the second SGS based on the second frame profile prevents the second customer from seeing the first content; and
a control circuit coupled with memory storing code that when implemented by the control circuit causes the control circuit to:
identify that the first SGS is located beyond a first threshold corresponding to the shopping facility; and
cause the first SGS to be disabled when beyond the first threshold.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the first SGS comprises an SGS control circuit wherein the SGS control circuit is configured to receive an encrypted definition of a frame profile frequency modulation of the first content and inhibits lens control of the SGS when the frame profile frequency modulation is unable to be decrypted.
3 . The system of claim 2 , further comprising:
a central control system separate from and in wireless communication with the plurality of SGSs, wherein the central control system comprises the control circuit that is configured to prevent a communication of a decryption key to the first SGS based on the identifying that the first SGS is beyond the first threshold.
4 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the central control system is configured to:
identify a first location of the first SGS while within the shopping facility and within the first threshold; and
direct the first content to be displayed on at least a first display located relative to the first location and at the first frame profile such that the first content is visible through the first SGS to the first customer while not being visible to the second customer through the second SGS.
5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the first SGS comprises the control circuit that, in causing the disabling of the first SGS, prevents the control of the lenses in accordance with a frame profile.
6 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a central control system separate from and in wireless communication with the plurality of SGSs, wherein the central control system is configured to identify that the first SGS is located beyond a second threshold corresponding to the shopping facility, and causes a warning notification to be visible through the first SGS.
7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the first SGS comprises an SGS control circuit that is configured to identify that the first SGS is located beyond a second threshold corresponding to the shopping facility, and causes a warning notification to be generated through the first SGS.
8 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a central control system separate from and in wireless communication with the plurality of SGSs, wherein the central control system is configured to cause a notification to be communicated to a mobile user interface unit associated with the first customer based on the identifying that the first SGS is located beyond the first threshold.
9 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a plurality of portable shopping facility supplied systems communicatively coupled with the control circuit, wherein the control circuit is configured to:
identify that a first portable system, of the plurality of shopping facility supplied systems, is beyond a first boundary corresponding to the shopping facility and the first portable system; and
cause the first portable system to be disabled when beyond the first boundary.
10 . A method providing a customized retail shopping experience, comprising:
enabling a plurality of active shutter glasses systems (SGS) each comprising controllable lenses to each selectively control a rate of when one or both of the lenses are opaque and when one or both of the lenses are transparent, wherein a first SGS of the plurality of SGSs is associated with a first customer while at the shopping facility and a second SGS of the plurality of SGSs is associated with a second customer while at the shopping facility; wherein the first SGS operates at a first frame profile at which the first SGS is to make a first content, intended for the first customer, visible to the first customer, and the second SGS operates at a different second frame profile at which the second SGS is to make a second content, intended for the second customer, visible to the second customer; wherein the first SGS based on the first frame profile prevents the first customer from seeing the second content and the second SGS based on the second frame profile prevents the second customer from seeing the first content;
identifying that the first SGS is located beyond a first threshold corresponding to the shopping facility; and
causing the first SGS to be disabled when beyond the first threshold.
11 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
receiving at the first SGS an encrypted definition of a frame profile frequency modulation of the first content; and
inhibiting lens control of the SGS when the frame profile frequency modulation is unable to be decrypted.
12 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:
preventing a communication of a decryption key to the first SGS based on the identifying that the first SGS is beyond the first threshold.
13 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
identifying a first location of the first SGS while within the shopping facility and within the first threshold; and
directing the first content to be displayed on at least a first display located relative to the first location and at the first frame profile such that the first content is visible through the first SGS to the first customer while not being visible to the second customer through the second SGS.
14 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the causing the disabling of the first SGS comprises preventing the control of the lenses in accordance with a frame profile.
15 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
identifying, at a central control system, that the first SGS is located beyond a second threshold corresponding to the shopping facility; and
causing a warning notification to be visible through the first SGS.
16 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
identifying, through an SGS control circuit of the first SGS, that the first SGS is located beyond a second threshold corresponding to the shopping facility, and causes a warning notification to be generated through the first SGS.
17 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
causing a notification to be communicated to a mobile user interface unit associated with the first customer based on the identifying that the first SGS is located beyond the first threshold.
18 . The method of claim 10 , further comprising:
identifying that a first portable system, of a plurality of shopping facility supplied systems, is beyond a first boundary corresponding to the shopping facility and the first portable system; and
causing the first portable system to be disabled when beyond the first boundary.
