Abstract: A system for automatically dispensing beverages according to a drink order. The system includes a conveyor that conveys a plurality of cup holders in and between a cup receiving location, a dispensing location, and a serving location. A cup dispenser is configured to dispense a cup into each of the plurality of cup holders at the cup receiving location. A plurality of additive dispensers is configured to dispense additives to the cup at the dispensing location. A controller is configured to receive the drink order, create a recipe from the drink order and link the recipe with one of the plurality of cup holders via a marker, dispense a cup to the cup holder via the cup dispenser, and thereafter control the conveyor and the plurality of additive dispensers so that the cup is filled with a beverage according to the recipe and then conveyed to the serving location.

Abstract: An inventory management system includes a scanning system moved by a pulley system to scan a series of inventory locations, such as in a retail display, and determine respective inventory amounts at each inventory location. The scanning system includes a distance sensor that measures the distance to a retail item at the inventory location, and a transmitter that wirelessly transmits the distance measurement. A pulley system moves the scanning system along at least one axis and comprises at least two pulleys, a stationary motor, and a connection line connected to the scanning system. A controller controls the stationary motor to move the scanning system to an aligned position with each inventory location in a series of inventory locations. The inventory management module is configured to determine an inventory amount at each inventory location based on the distance measurement at the respective inventory location.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods are for dispensing condiments, including a base condiment together with and at least one additive. In some examples, a dispenser apparatus comprises a dispenser body having an upstream inlet that is configured to receive the base condiment and a downstream outlet that is configured to dispense the base condiment together with the additive(s). An additive body is configured to supply the additive(s) into the dispenser body as the base condiment is conveyed from the upstream inlet to the downstream outlet so that the base condiment and the additive(s) are concurrently dispensed via the downstream outlet. The systems and methods can operatively include arrangements for selecting a base condiment; selecting one or more additives from a plurality of additives; and supplying the base condiment and the additive(s) to a dispenser apparatus that dispenses the base condiment and additive(s) together.
