In various embodiments, a first tag is associated with a first parcel that is to be delivered. A data structure is accessed that indicates that the first parcel is assigned to be placed in a first logistics vehicle of a plurality of logistics vehicles. An indication is received that a first device, which may be located inside, on, or in proximity to the first logistics vehicle, has read data of the first tag. A determination is made that the first parcel has been placed inside the first assigned logistics vehicle and a notification is transmitted to a user device associated with a first user that indicates that het first parcel has been placed inside the first logistics vehicle.

Reader device technology for determining that an asset is loaded to the assigned logistics vehicle

In various embodiments, a first indication that a first reader device has read data of a first tag coupled to a first asset is received. The first reader device is included in an article worn by a user. Subsequent to the receiving of the first indication, a second indication that at least one of: a second reader device has read the data of the first tag, or the first reader device has read data of a second tag is received. The second reader device and the second tag are located in a first logistics vehicle. Based at least in part on the receiving of the first indication and the second indication, it is determined that the user has transported the first asset to the first logistics vehicle. In response to the determining, a notification indicating whether the first asset has been transported to a correctly assigned logistics vehicle is transmitted to the first reader device or a third device associated with the user.

Wearable reader device technology for guiding a user to load an asset in an assigned logistics vehicle

In various embodiments, a first tag is associated with a first parcel that is to be delivered. A data structure is accessed that indicates that the first parcel is assigned to be placed in a first logistics vehicle of a plurality of logistics vehicles. An indication is received that a first device, which may be located inside, on, or in proximity to the first logistics vehicle, has read data of the first tag. A determination is made that the first parcel has been placed inside the first assigned logistics vehicle and a notification is transmitted to a user device associated with a first user that indicates that the first parcel has been placed inside the first logistics vehicle.

Reader device technology for determining that an assets is loaded to the assigned logistics vehicle

In some embodiments, a first indication that a first antenna, of multiple antennas, has received data from a first tag coupled to an asset is received. The antennas are coupled to an interior housing within a logistics vehicle. A second indication that a second antenna, of the antennas, has received the data from the first tag is also received. Based at least in part on the receiving of the first indication and the receiving of the second indication, a location within the logistics vehicle that asset is located in is detected. In response to the detecting of the location, a control signal is transmitted that causes a user device or apparatus to indicate that the asset is located within an area associated with the location.
