Abstract
In a computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a system, at least one processor obtains and decides a signal of decodable indicia to obtain information identifying an object made up of items. The processor obtains data comprising descriptive text characterizing the portion of the object, including quantitative inventory data related to the portion of the object. The processor displays the visual representation as a three dimensional image and the descriptive text, via an AR/VR device, generating a virtual projection in three dimensional space in a range of view of a user utilizing the device. The processor obtains a designation of a region in the visual representation and executes an action that changes a quantitative or a qualitative element of the descriptive text for an item represented by the region. The processor updates the descriptive text in the visual representation, to reflect the change.
