Abstract: A network connection is established with a server. A broadcasted advertising packet of a wireless communication protocol is received from a remote device. The remote device repeatedly broadcasts content of the advertising packet based at least in part a total number of remote devices specified to broadcast to the system. Payload content from the advertising packet is extracted. At least a portion of the extracted payload content is sent via the network connection to the server.

Abstract: A content fill level is measured. An interrogation signal is transmitted. A reflected signal having a plurality of peaks is received. One of the peaks corresponds to a signal reflection of the interrogation signal indicative of the content fill level. The plurality of peaks is digitally analyzed to distinguish which peak is indicative of the content fill level.

Abstract: A sensor device includes a transmitter located in a container cover that is configured to engage an opening of a container. The sensor device includes a propagation chamber with a first opening configured to receive a signal emitted by the transmitter and guide the signal out of the propagation chamber via a second opening. Cross-sections of the propagation chamber vary along at least a portion of a length of the propagation chamber and the propagation chamber includes one or more transitions where a rate of change of a property of the propagation chamber changes. The sensor device includes a signal processor included in the container cover and configured to use data associated with a reflection of the emitted signal to determine an identifier of a content fill level of the container.

Abstract: A sensor device includes a communication transmitter configured to transmit a sensor device identifier.

Abstract: A content fill level sensor is disclosed. The sensor includes a transmitter located proximal to a portion of a container cover that is configured to engage an opening of a container. The sensor also includes a waveguide extending from the transmitter such that the waveguide includes a distal end that is configured to be located within an interior of the container when the container cover engages the container.

Abstract: A measurement device includes a sensor configured to detect triggering of the device. The measurement device further includes a transmitter configured to transmit an interrogation signal in response to the triggering of the device, and a receiver configured to detect a received signal that captures one or more reflections of the interrogation signal. A processor of the measurement device is configured to select a selected reflection among a plurality of identified potential reflections captured in the received signal, and provide an identifier corresponding to the selected reflection that is associated with an amount of content included in a container engaged by the content measurement device.

Abstract: A measurement device includes a transmitter configured to transmit an interrogation signal. The measurement device also includes a receiver configured to receive the interrogation signal that has been reflected within a container. The received reflected interrogation signal corresponds to a fill level of the container. A protective barrier covers at least the transmitter or the receiver. If the protective barrier covers the transmitter, the transmitter transmits the interrogation signal through the protective barrier and the transmitter and the protective barrier are separated by a gap.

Abstract: Quantity analysis is disclosed. A quantity identification of an amount of content included in a container is received from a container cover of the container. The quantity identification is analyzed along with a history of past quantity identifications received from the container cover over time to determine an analysis result. An action associated with the content of the container is performed based on the analysis result.

Abstract: The smart phone and tablet applications are akin to news and media websites available on the Internet in that the applications provide the latest content, richest media experience and an evolving community around the brand. The disclosure provides an efficient and inexpensive process and system for creating and managing of software applications for multiple smart phone and tablet platforms via an online platform. The systems and processes facilitate creation of applications, which communicate with a workflow implemented and powered by an online server. The systems also provides a feed server system that continuously fetches content from various feed sources, aggregates content, and maps into a local data model that can be defined dynamically. The applications are containers that request content from the served based on a token that is preinstalled into the application. The containers are built with the mechanism to bind data to layouts dynamically using the scripting code downloaded from an online server.
