Abstract:
Described in detail herein are systems and methods for an automatic physical object status marking system. An electronic label can display a machine-readable element encoded with an identifier associated with a physical object on the display. A first computing system can receive instructions to modify a status of the physical object. The first computing system can retrieve the identifier associated with the physical objects and the identifier associated with the electronic label. The first computing system can control display of the electronic label to display a visual indicator associated with the status. An RFID reader can detect a RFID tag of the electronic label. The RFID reader can transmit the identifier associated with the electronic label to the second computing system. The second computing system is prevented from scanning a machine-readable element associated with the physical object in response to receiving the first identifier from the RFID reader.

Claim (Index 11):
An automatic physical object status marking method using electronic labels, the method comprising:\n displaying, via at least one electronic label of a plurality of electronic labels, each electronic label affixed to a corresponding one of a plurality of physical objects disposed in a first location of a facility, the at least one electronic label including a display, a RFID tag encoded with a first identifier, the machine-readable element encoded with a second identifier on the display, the first identifier is associated with the at least one electronic label and the second identifier is associated with a first one of the physical objects on which the at least one electronic label is affixed; receiving, via a first computing system including a database, the first computing system being in selective communication with the at least one electronic label, instructions to modify a status of the at least one physical object; querying, via the computing system, the database to retrieve the second identifier associated with the first one of the physical objects and the first identifier associated with the electronic label; controlling, via the computing system, the display of the at least one electronic label to display a first indicator associated with the status; detecting, via at least one RFID reader disposed with respect to a second computing system, the second computing system, the RFID tag of the at least one electronic label affixed to the first one of the physical objects in response to the RFID tag being within range of the RFID reader; and transmitting, via the at least one RFID reader, the first identifier encoded in the RFID tag to the second computing system, wherein the second computing system is disposed at a second location of the facility and is operatively coupled to an optical scanner, the first computing system, and the at least one RFID reader, and wherein the second computing system is prevented from scanning a machine-readable element associated with the physical object in response to receiving the first identifier from the RFID reader.
