• storing decoration data in the data storage unit, the decoration data comprising information defining at least all United States military decorations;
• receiving user input at the military decoration rack kiosk that specifies a plurality of military ribbons or military medals, wherein the specified plurality of military ribbons and the military medals are used for creating a military decoration rack design, wherein the specification of the plurality of military ribbons and the military medals are received from a user via an input interface of a military decoration rack kiosk located in a military related retail space, and wherein the military decoration rack kiosk receives the user input that specifies the plurality of military ribbons and the military medals that are to be incorporated into a military decoration rack that is to be generated based on the user input received at the military decoration rack kiosk, the military decoration rack kiosk further comprising:
• a military decoration rack display unit;
• and
• a military decoration rack processing unit configured to execute instruction data that has been stored at the data storage unit;
• wherein the military decoration rack processing unit is in electronic communication with the data storage unit;
• wherein the instruction data includes an input module, an arrangement module, and a display module;
• transmitting the instruction data and the decoration data from the data storage unit to the military decoration rack kiosk;
• translating, at the military decoration rack processing unit executing the received instruction data via the input module under execution of the military decoration rack processing unit, the user input into input data that specifies the plurality of military ribbons and the military medals;
• transforming, via the arrangement module under execution of the military decoration rack processing unit, the input data, the decoration data, and the regulation data into rack data that defines a military decoration rack corresponding to the user input;
• communicating the rack data from the storage unit to the military decoration rack display unit;
• generating, at the military decoration rack kiosk, a visual representation of the military decoration rack based upon the rack data;
• producing, via the display module under execution of the military decoration rack processing unit, the visual representation of the military decoration rack;
• displaying, via the display unit of the military decoration rack kiosk, the visual representation of the military decoration rack that has been generated by the military decoration rack processing unit of the military decoration rack kiosk to the user;
• and
• transmitting, via a communication module of the military decoration rack kiosk, the rack data from the military decoration rack kiosk to a production facility in electronic communication with the military decoration rack kiosk;
• wherein the military decoration rack is later produced at the production facility based on the rack data received from the military decoration rack kiosk.
