Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for conducting inventories using an electronic device. For example, the systems and methods herein may facilitate conducting inventories, e.g., for inventorying food products and/or other supplies for a restaurant. Such systems and methods may involve using an electronic device, such as a wireless and/or mobile devices, e.g., a smart cellular telephone, a tablet computer, and the like. In addition, the electronic device may be included in a system that records inventories, deliveries, and the like, and compares them to previous inventories, sales, and the like, e.g. to project future orders for supplies, to identify losses, such as waste or theft, and the like.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for logging temperatures of food products using a temperature assembly including a housing and one or more temperature sensors, e.g., an infrared sensor for surface temperatures and an elongate probe for acquiring a temperature within a food product, and a mobile electronic device including a camera, a communication interface for communicating with the temperature assembly, a processor configured to acquire a temperature reading from the temperature assembly and an image from the camera when the temperature reading is acquired, and memory for storing the temperature reading and image.

Abstract: A system and method for acquiring, compiling and displaying data indicative of healthcare data workflow within an integrated healthcare enterprise simplifies the monitoring and identification of inefficiencies such as bottlenecks in the enterprise. Information gathered from enterprise system components and data files are used to measure individual component performance. System alerts and messaging capabilities allow an enterprise administrator to remedy potential bottlenecks before problems arise. Remedial measures may be programmed into the system to automatically remedy inefficiencies as they are identified.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for ordering prepared food products via a network using an electronic device. A menu of available prepared food products may be presented on a display, and one of the prepared food products may be selected using an interface of the device. A menu of bread items available may be presented including visual representations of each available bread item. One of the bread items may be selected, whereupon a visual representation of the selected bread may be presented. One or more ingredients may be selected using the interface, whereupon visual representations of the ingredients are superimposed on the visual representation of the selected bread item. The systems and methods may provide an enhanced visual experience similar to ordering the product in person and watching the product being made.

Abstract: The invention provides marketing a telephone service that has an adapter or dongle that is functionally interposed between a telephone and a telephone utility line. The adapter is programmed to receive a voice signal and telephone number transmitted by the telephone. Based on the telephone number, the adapter determines whether to (i) pass the telephone number through to the utility line, or (ii) pass a different access number through to the utility line. A first server then receives voice signal through the telephone utility line, and to send the voice signal as a series of packets through a packet switched network to a second server. The second server is programmed to transmit and receive the voice signal to a second telephone via another telephone utility line. The service is based on a flat-fee subscription.
