Patent number: 11961043Abstract: An inventory tracking system includes storage modules that hold one or more items. Each item is positionable at locations within the storage modules independent of physical characteristics of the item. Inventory monitoring modules are included to monitor storage modules for adding an item, retrieving an item, consuming of the item, returning an unused item, discarding at least a portion of a consumed item, or combinations thereof. Each act is used to determine information about items utilized in the act, including the location within the storage modules of the items. Each storage module updates a central inventory database about a location of the storage module, a revised inventory of the items stored within the storage modules, or both. The location of the storage modules, the revised inventory of the items stored within the storage modules, or both, is used to order a replenishment of the items held within the storage modules.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Omnicell, Inc.Inventors: Anupam Kumar Dattamajumdar, Herbert Lawson Fisher, John Alfred D'Costa, Rupert P.
