More and more, we are ordering gifts online and have them shipped directly to their recipients. However, there's got to be something more exciting than a plain brown cardboard box, a cinched gift sack, or a computer generated note.
We believe digitally-enabled packaging features could help add some much-needed delight to the gift opening experience, through surprising, personalizing, and/or adding some fun to the package!
Deliverables
Propose a way senders can customize Packaging for online Birthday Gifts, that will impress the recipient. In your response, be sure to include the following 4 items:

- How could the sender personalize it during online ordering?
- What technology is needed to make this possible? How does it work? Who offers this technology?

CRITERIA: We're especially interested in new and emerging technology.
