Abstract
An autonomous retail system (ARS) can provide a convenient way for a manufacturer or vendor to sell products or services, and an equally convenient way for a customer to find and purchase the same. Users of an ARS may make concurrent orders via a user device for concurrent transaction processing by the ARS. An ARS may determine whether another ARS may be better suited to transact an order if the other ARS has fewer users waiting to place orders. In some embodiments, a map to the better-suited ARS may be presented by the ARS or provided for the user device to present. The map may include an indication of the better-suited ARS(es) and paths to them.
