Managing logistics information related to a logistics container using a container interface display apparatus

Methods, apparatus and systems for managing logistics information related to a container using a container interface display apparatus are described. In general, the container interface display apparatus may comprise a mountable case, a display screen, a memory, a scanner, and a wireless communication interface. The housing is attached to the container in an orientation that allows the scanner to identify an item to be shipped within the container as the item is loaded into the container. The scanner identifies the item during container loading and the apparatus records an association in memory where the association reflects an established and tracked relationship between the container being loaded and the identified item, and the association is part of the managed logistics information . The apparatus increments the package count information (another part of the managed logistics information) to reflect that the item to be shipped within the container is loaded within the container. The apparatus then outputs electronic logistics control information on the display screen to include at least a part of the container-related managed logistics information.</p> <p>(Automatic translation with Google Translate, no value legal)
