Abstract: An inventory management system suited to provide inventory information for items in the inventory based upon a position in the system. In an embodiment, the inventory being kept track of is a wine collection and the system for managing the inventory may be a wine refrigerator with several storage positions in a refrigerated cavity accessible by a door. The door may be a clear panel having functionality to detect a tactile input on the panel as well as configured to display information about one or more inventory items in response to the tactile input. Thus, as a person may touch a particular portion of the panel, the panel senses the touch and then triggers display of specific information about the particular wine that is closest to where the touch was detected. That is, a person may touch the panel on the closed door near a bottle of wine to trigger a display of the corresponding bottle of wine.
