Abstract: A device to measure the material level inside the container includes a housing unit removably attachable to a cap of a container for holding a beverage, wherein the housing unit is configured to remain attached to the cap when the cap is at least partially removed from the container. The device further includes, a signal producing unit located in the housing unit, a first sensor located in the housing unit to sense a beverage level in the container and a controller located in the housing unit. The controller is configured to receive from the first sensor an indication of a beverage level in the container and activate the signal producing unit based at least on the indication of the beverage level in the container.

Abstract: A system for notifying a user about an estimated time of consumption of a product includes an electronic device and a processor. The electronic device is integrated with a container of a product and configured to transmit a plurality of data relating to the amount of product in the container. The processor is configured to perform steps of a method. The method receives from the electronic device the plurality of data relating to the amount of product in the container and, based on the received plurality of data, calculates a usage pattern for the product in the container. The method calculates, based on the usage pattern, an estimated time of consumption of the product in the container, and then either notifies a user of an estimated time of consumption of the product in the container or automatically orders a refill of the product based on the estimated time of consumption.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for notifying a user about an estimated time of consumption of a product. The system includes an electronic device, and a processor. The electronic device is integrated with a portion of a container of a product and configured to transmit a plurality of data relating to the amount of product in the container. The processor is configured to perform steps of a method. The method initiates with a step to receive from the electronic device the plurality of data relating to the amount of product in the container. The above step is then followed by another step i.e. based on the received plurality of data; calculate a usage pattern for the product in the container. The above step is then followed by another step i.e. based on the usage pattern; calculate an estimated time of consumption of the product in the container.
