Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for automatically monitoring and managing inventory in real time within a retail environment are presented. To monitor and manage inventory of electronic devices configured to communicate wirelessly, the electronic devices are configured to send device status messages via wireless communication to wireless connection devices, which in turn send inventory messages to a remote inventory server via a communication network. To monitor non-communicating inventory, wireless tags are included within or affixed to inventory packaging to communicate with the electronic devices or wireless connection devices. Based upon such inventory messages, the remote inventory server monitors inventory location and levels at retail locations. Inventory levels may be adjusted according to inventory distribution plans based upon such inventory information.

Abstract: Vaporization devices having portions to enable signal transmission therethrough. A vaporization device includes a body having a first end, a second end, and forming an internal cavity. At least a portion of the internal cavity forming a cartridge receptacle. The vaporization device includes a battery disposed within the internal cavity and a processor operatively coupled to the battery and disposed within the body. The processor is arranged to respond to a signal to switch the vaporization device between a first operational mode and a second operational mode. The vaporization device also includes a portion of the body arranged to permit transmission of the signal through the portion of the body from a location external to the body, thereby permitting the processor to switch the vaporization device between the first and second operational modes in response to the receipt of the signal.

Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, and computer-readable media storing instructions for predicting and facilitating resupply of vaporization device cartridges are disclosed. Vaporization usage data generated by a vaporization device is sent to a mobile device or remote server for analysis to determine when additional supply of cartridges will be needed. The vaporization usage data may include information regarding usage of the vaporization device by a user (e.g., puff count, average puff length, average daily use), which information may be used to estimate when a current cartridge (and any known spare cartridges) will be depleted. Based upon this estimate, a resupply order may be automatically placed or may be proposed to the user. Alternatively, information regarding nearby retail locations having appropriate replacement cartridge inventory may be generated and sent to the user to facilitate the user obtaining a resupply.
