摘要： The system includes an apparatus which automatically measures an inventory of a consumable good and tracks the inventory as it is used. The system may include a signaling device which creates a signal when a defined minimum amount of the consumable good has been reached. The apparatus may also send the user an electronic message that the defined minimum has been reached. The system may then automatically submit an order to a supplier for a replacement supply of the consumable good. This system may be used to track supply and reorder animal food, food staples, production supplies, manufacturing parts, or virtually any consumable good. Accordingly, a user may avoid the inconvenience and loss of time and money due to failure to timely replace a consumable good.

摘要： The inventory management system (“the system”) includes a series of bar codes and a bar code reader. The bar codes are placed around the inventory storage area on or near containers which store inventory items. The bar codes identify the contents of the container. The system includes a bar code reader and an augmented reality viewing device. The system includes a processor which stores instructions for identifying the bar codes associated with each of the inventory items in an order. When the bar code reader scans a bar code associated with an item in the order, the augmented reality viewing device emits a cue that indicates the item should be picked. The containers may be connected to sensors which detect when an item has been removed and which transmit the sensor data to a processor. The processor may include instructions for processing the sensor data to maintain a current inventory.

摘要： The present disclosure describes a method of detecting a drug marker in urine a urine sample using a toilet. The drug markers are fluorophores each of which emits a unique fluorescence spectra. Accordingly, the method does not detect the drug but rather, the drug marker. A user who has consumed the drug with its unique drug marker then urinates into the toilet and a urine sample is captured. The toilet includes a mechanism for fluid handling which diverts urine into a fluorescence spectrometer. The fluorescence spectrometer screens the urine for drug markers based on their unique fluorescent spectra. The toilet may include a controller which quantifies the drug marker. The fluorescent spectrometer may detect multiple drug markers in a single urine sample. This method may be used to confirm drug compliance, test for illicit drugs, identify amounts of drugs consumed, and other uses described herein.
