Claim 0:
1. A wearable augmented reality device comprising:
a display interface for presenting a graphical user interface including at least one opaque or semi-transparent graphic element;
a communication interface;
a location sensor for detecting location information identifying a location of the wearable augmented reality device;
an environment sensor for capturing information associated with a surrounding environment of the wearable augmented reality device within the location; and
a processor configured to:
determine, using location information from the location sensor and environment information from the environment sensor, that a user currently associated with the augmented reality device is near a storage location for a user action that includes drop off or retrieval of a medication;
determine a preferred position for the medication in the storage location based on a three-dimensional model of the surrounding environment and a virtual model of the storage location;
present, via the display interface, a visual indicator augmented over objects in the storage location within the user's view to assist the user with dropping off or retrieving the medication at the preferred position by highlighting the preferred position within the storage location and among the objects in the storage location;
confirm, via information received from the environment sensor, that the drop off or retrieval of the medication was completed; and
send, via the communication interface based on confirming that the drop off or retrieval of the medication was completed, an update message to a server indicating the completion of the user action, wherein the update message causes the server to update a medication inventory in a database.
