The present disclosure describes a dynamic queueing and management system. The system utilizes the desired completion time in determining where to place new orders into the queue of orders to be fulfilled. If the desired completion time changes, the position of the corresponding order is adjusted within the queue. In some embodiments, the desired completion time is determined based on the location of the customer, either within the store or en route to the store. The queueing and management system may also separate the order input function from the order fulfillment and delivery functions. This may optimize each part of the process and allow faster service.

Optical microstructures for light extraction and control
InactiveUS20070172171A1Increase probabilitySpeed up the extraction processStatic indicating devicesCoupling light guidesDisplay deviceCOLORED MATERIAL
The application of microstructures which improve the quality of light available to the viewer of an optical display system, or any display which works on the concept of moving one surface into direct contact or close proximity of a light guide to extract light through frustrated total internal reflection. Optical microstructures are introduced on one or both of the surfaces of the active layer to enhance its performance. Since the active layer has both an input and an output function, means for enhancing both are presented. The input function to the active layer occurs on the internal surface, so this is where the present invention adds a collector-coupler, a means for facilitating the migration of light from the waveguide into the active layer. The output function occurs on the external surface, where the present invention adds a collimator, a means for both increasing the probability that a light wave will be released from the active layer, and improving the apparent intensity by redirecting light waves so that more of them reach the viewer. Compound microlenses on the internal surface of the active layer can serve as both collector-couplers and collimators, substantially improving light extraction from the light guide and light distribution to the viewer. Depositing a reflective or colored material in the interstitial spaces between these compound microlenses improves the contrast ratio and mitigate pixel cross-talk. The opaque material can be conductive for use in actuating the display.
