New Smart Package Room® Feature Reduces Couriers’ Multiple Package Deliveries From Minutes To Seconds

LAS VEGAS, NV – OPTECH – November 1, 2022 – Position Imaging, Inc, a pioneer in package logistics and asset tracking, today announced at OPTECH In-Room Scanning—a new feature for its Smart Package Room platform. The feature leverages the same hand-held scanning process couriers are familiar with to automatically assign packages to residents in multifamily communities—improving accuracy and compliance and streamlining their work by 50 percent.

The Smart Package Room is a secure area where packages are easily staged, identified, tracked, and delivered to residents using Computer Vision technology. Typically, couriers scan every package individually at a wall-mounted, external kiosk. This new technology performs all scanning inside the Smart Package Room.

Additional benefits include:

  • Scanning labels closer to the package placement location.
  • OCR technology automatically detects the recipient and auto-assigns in the system for resident notification.
  • The mobile hand-held device allows single-hand actions and ease of use when scanning labels.

“The Smart Package Room is quickly becoming the must-have amenity residents expect in multifamily communities—and we just made it faster and easier than ever for couriers,” said Ned Hill, founder and CEO of Position Imaging. “Now couriers have no learning curve to use our Smart Package Room—any questions about how to use our system have been removed by replicating the same process they have been trained to do for years.”

Meta is nearly doubling its Meta Lab stores for Ray-Ban AI glasses

Meta is nearly doubling its Meta Lab stores for Ray-Ban AI glasses

Meta is nearly doubling the store footprint of Meta Lab, its retail concept for Ray-Ban AI glasses, according to Modern Retail. In November 2025, The Wall Street Journal reported on pop-up stores in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Burlingame and New York City. The stores are built for lingering and selfies. That design brief matters for any brand selling a wearable people must try on.

  • 01Meta designed its Meta Lab pop-ups around dwell time and photo-taking, with coffee stations and full-length mirrors, an explicit rejection of the get-in-get-out electronics store model, per The Wall Street Journal.
  • 02For brands launching a wearable that shoppers need to see on their own face, Meta's decision to expand physical stores rather than rely solely on online channels is a real-world reference point for the try-on problem.
  • 03The signal to watch is whether the new Meta Lab locations keep the pop-up format the Journal described or shift toward longer-term leases.

Fuel-selling convenience stores hit an eight-year high even as total count slips

Fuel-selling convenience stores hit an eight-year high even as total count slips

NACS and NIQ TDLinx put the 2026 U.S. convenience-store count at 151,975 locations, down 280 stores. Fuel-selling stores rose to 122,620, the highest in eight years. For operators, the data sharpens where forecourt uptime, fuel margins, and foodservice investments matter most by state and ownership scale.

  • 01A flat national store count can still mean more forecourts to run: fuel-selling locations grew 768 sites even as total c-stores fell 280, per NACS.
  • 02State variation is the real planning variable: Texas alone has 16,504 stores while Alaska has 185, and New York saw the biggest decline (-143), per NACS.
  • 03Ownership mix drives vendor go-to-market: 63% of stores sit with operators at 10 or fewer locations, a reminder that ‘enterprise’ rollouts must work for small fleets too, per NACS.
