1. An apparatus for automatic item searching and verification, the apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one non-transitory memory including computer-coded instructions thereon, the computer-coded instructions, with the at least one processor, configure the apparatus to:
retrieve a target item data set associated with item distribution route data;
receive a captured image comprising an item representation set and an item information representation set associated with the item representation set,
wherein each item representation of the item representation set is associated with an item position in an augmented reality environment;
identify, from an item information representation of the item information representation set, a scanned item data object corresponding to the item information representation;
determine that the scanned item data object comprises a relevant item data object based on at least the target item data set;
generate an augmented reality element corresponding to the relevant item data object;
cause rendering, to a user interface, of the captured image augmented based on at least the augmented reality element,
wherein the augmented reality element is rendered based on at least a first item position associated with an item representation corresponding to the augmented reality element;
capture, using an imaging apparatus, a second captured image set comprising a second visual indicia set;
decode, from the second visual indicia set, a second scanned item data set associated with the second visual indicia set, the second scanned item data set representing a loaded item data set;
identify, based on at least the second scanned item data set, an undetected relevant item data object;
generate an undetected relevant item notification based on at least the undetected relevant item data object; and
cause rendering, to the user interface, of the undetected relevant item notification.
