1. A device for housing and delivering a product to a designated recipient, the device comprising:
- a digital processor, a memory module coupled to the digital processor and a network interface coupled to the digital processor;
a cabinet comprising a cubby and a front door, wherein the front door comprises a digital screen and is coupled to the digital processor via a network;
one or more sensors that are located in the cubby and are configured to monitor an interior space of the cubby;
wherein the memory module stores programmed instructions which, when executed using the digital processor, cause the digital processor to configure the digital screen to go dark when the one or more sensors detect that the product is being loaded to the cubby, and to configure the digital screen to go clear, so that the product in the cubby is visible through the front door and digital screen, when the one or more sensors detect that the product has been placed in the cubby.

19. A device for housing and delivering a product to a designated recipient, the device comprising:
-
a digital processor, a memory module coupled to the digital processor and a network interface coupled to the digital processor; a cabinet comprising a cubby, a back door, and a front door, wherein the front door comprises a digital screen and is coupled to the digital processor via a network; one or more sensors that are located in the cubby and are configured to monitor an interior space of the cubby; wherein the memory module stores programmed instructions which, when executed using the digital processor, cause the digital processor to configure the digital screen to go dark while the front door remains locked when the one or more sensors detect that the product is being loaded to the cubby from the back door, and to configure the digital screen to go clear while the front door remains unlocked, so that the product in the cubby is visible through the front door and digital screen. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
