Abstract: A system of detecting loading and unloading of mobile containers such as grain carts utilizes two low pass filters to determine whether the contents of the container are changing by subtracting one filter signal from the other, and using the sign of the difference. Weighing performance is improved by utilizing accelerometers to compensate for measurement dynamics and non-level orientation. Failure and degradation of weight sensors is detected by testing sensor half bridges. Loading and unloading weights can be tied to specific vehicles by utilizing RF beacons.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for determining compliance of a container with composite signatures are disclosed. The disclosed techniques utilize a first device (e.g., an edge device) to determine characteristics of a container, such as dimensions, weight, indicia, or a combination thereof. Information indicative of the characteristics is sent to a computing device that determines a composite signature (or parameters) of the container based on the information. The computing device compares the composite signature (or parameters) to one or more stored composite signatures to determine compliance of the composite signature (e.g., of the container) with the one or more stored composite signatures (or stored parameters). The computing device also controls a process of managing a release of the container based on the compliance or non-compliance.

Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement for checking contours of pallets (18) to be put into storage in a rack system, said arrangement comprising: a pallet transfer station (12) which is designed to receive pallets (18) to be put into storage in the rack system; at least one sensor device (16a-16d) which is designed to detect whether a pallet (18) standing on the pallet transfer station (12) and objects supported by the pallet (18) are completely within a predefined contour; and an output unit (24) which is operationally coupled to the sensor unit (16a-16d) and is designed to output the detection result. The invention also relates to a rack system comprising at least one rack row, at least one stacker crane and at least one arrangement for checking contours, the pallet transfer station of which is designed such that pallets can be placed thereon from outside the rack system, which pallets can then be picked up by the stacker crane so as to be put into storage.

Abstract: A medicine container configured to hold one or more different medications. The container may include an orientation sensor to determine the orientation of the container. The container may also include one or more additional sensors to detect other physical characteristics about the container and/or medicine. The orientation of the container in combination with the information from the one or more additional sensors is used to determine an accurate indication of an amount of the medicine within the container and thus usage information. The container also includes a wireless transmitter for transmitting the information regarding the medicine to a remote location.

Abstract: A system and method for real-time management of liquid bottles contents in a restauration establishment includes a controller and at least one bottle support base coupled to the controller. Each bottle support base includes a bottle-receiving surface, a first sensor that produces a first signal indicative of a weight of a bottle deposited on the surface; a second sensor for reading an identification element on the bottle and for producing a second signal indicative thereof; and a transmitter for transmitting to the controller data indicative of the first and second signal. The controller implements numerous functionalities that are derived from its assessment of the volumes of alcohol in the bottles using the data received from the support bases.
