  • Patent number: 11899081
    Abstract: A wireless sensor for an associated machine or machine part which includes a communications module that wirelessly transmits data related to the associated machine or machine part. The communications module is mounted on the sensor and the sensor is disposed under the bottom side of the control circuitry. A sensor is configured to measure one or more properties of the associated machine or machine part. The wireless sensor can be used with a smart device app such that information from the wireless sensor can be received and displayed on the smart device.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20180094984
    Abstract: A sensing system for bins includes a bin with at least one light emitting diode operatively mounted to the bin. At least one receiver for detecting IR light from the at least one light emitting diode is also operatively mounted to the bin. A microcontroller is operatively connected to the at least one light emitting diode and the at least one receiver. A wireless transmitter is operatively connected to the microcontroller for relaying information regarding the content status of the bin to an indicator. The at least one light emitting diode, the at least one receiver, the wireless transmitter, and the microcontroller are operatively connected to a power source.
