    Abstract: The present invention is related to methods and systems for collected item information for stored items. In one embodiment, a networked food storage system comprises a first sensor configured to read information from item tags coupled to items, wherein the items are stored or intended to be stored in a storage unit. A data store is configured to store food preferences for at least a first user. Instructions, stored in computer readable memory, are configured to: cause a first user interface to be displayed to the first user via which the first user can request a meal suggestion; retrieve preference information for the first user from computer readable memory; retrieve information read from at least a first item tag; and provide a meal suggestion based at least in part on preference information for the first user and item tag information.

    Abstract: The invention concerns a device for detecting the handling of at least one object, the device including a deformable enclosure, to which are attached at least one sensor for the detection of a grasping of objects and at least one wireless radio transmitter, the sensor being able to provide either one from among a first signal for detection of the grasping of an object and a second signal for detection of the absence of grasping of an object. The invention is characterized in that the transmitter includes first means for wireless radio transmission of a third signal, allowing determination of a localization of the enclosure towards a receiver remote from the deformable enclosure, as well as second means for wireless radio transmission of the first or second signal towards said receiver.

    Abstract: A technique for organizing pathology samples includes sorting the samples into bins defined at different physical locations of a sorting apparatus, based on a set of designations applied to the samples. With such an arrangement, unorganized pathology samples may be grouped so that all the same accession numbers are grouped together for efficient filing or re-filing with reduced error. An apparatus suitable for use according to this technique includes a support structure and multiple dividers defining multiple sets of bins on the apparatus. A different set of bins is provided on the apparatus for each of the set of designations applied to the samples.
