Systems and methods for packing visualizations

A method for presenting packing instructions to a user, the method comprising:

• storing, in a database, packing information and item visualizations;
• receiving, at a control circuit, an order identifier for an order;
• retrieving, by the control circuit from the database based on the order identifier, packing information associated with the order and item visualizations for items in the order;
• generating, by the control circuit based on the packing information associated with the order, a packing visualization for the order, wherein the packing visualization for the order depicts placement of the items in the order in a container to guide the user as to how to arrange the items in the container;
• transmitting, by the control circuit to a display device for presentation, the packing visualization for the order;
• receiving and presenting, via the display device, the packing visualization for the order to the user;
• capturing images, by an image capture device, of the user placing the items in the container;
• receiving, by the control circuit from the image capture device, the images of the user placing the items in the container;
• determining, by the control circuit, based on the images of the user placing the items in the container, that the user has deviated from the placement of the items in the order in the container by comparison to the generated packing visualization for the order;
• transmitting, by the control circuit, a notification of deviation from the placement of the items to the display device;
• receiving, by the control circuit, a notification to generate an updated packing visualization with the deviation;
• and
• generating and transmitting, by the control circuit, the updated packing visualization in which the deviation is part of the updated packing visualization.
