Systems and methods for controlling shelf display units and for graphically presenting information on shelf display units
Systems and methods for controlling shelf display units and for graphically presenting information on shelf display units are disclosed. A system includes one or more display units configured to be coupled to shelves of a modular shelving system, one or more processors communicatively coupled to the one or more display units, one or more memory components communicatively coupled to the one or more processors, and machine readable instructions stored in the one or more memory components. When executed by the one or more processors, the machine readable instructions cause the system to determine a product identifier corresponding to a product, identify one or more display units to update in response to determining the product identifier corresponding to the product, and update a graphical output of the one or more display units identified to be updated in response to identifying the one or more display units to update.
1. A system for graphically presenting a product location indication on one or more display units, the system comprising:
one or more display units configured to be coupled to shelves of a modular shelving system;
one or more processors communicatively coupled to the one or more display units;
one or more memory components communicatively coupled to the one or more processors; and
machine readable instructions stored in the one or more memory components that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:
receive input indicative of a request to set a planogram;
determine the planogram to be set;
compare the planogram to be set with a prior planogram;
identify one or more display units to update based on the comparison of the planogram to be set and the prior planogram; and
in response to identifying the one or more display units to update, update a graphical output of the one or more display units identified to be updated to graphically present planogram set information associated with the planogram to be set.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the graphically presented planogram set information provides a visual indication of changes to be made to a current placement of products on a plurality of shelves.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the graphically presented planogram set information includes an animation of a visual contraction or expansion of an area where a product is to be set according to the planogram.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the machine readable instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:
receive input indicative of a completion of the planogram set; and
in response to receiving the input indicative of the completion of the planogram set, change the one or more display units to a consumer mode.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the machine readable instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:
in response to identifying the one or more display units to update, change a color of a graphical output of the one or more display units identified to be updated based on actions to be taken for the one or more display units.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the graphically presented planogram set information includes different colors associated with actions to be taken.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the actions include at least one of adding a product and removing a product.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the graphically presented planogram set information includes an arrow pointing to a location on one of the shelves that a product is to be set.
