The output interface is configured to provide feedback data based on the analysis of the user data to a water consuming device.

Abstract: An apparatus for aggregation of water condition at household appliances comprises a communication interface and a controller. The communication interface is configured to send a reporting message indicative of data collected by at least one appliance to a central server. The controller is configured to receive an analysis message from the central server. The analysis message indicates a condition of water from the at least one appliance or a condition of water in a geographic area associated with the at least one appliance. The controller is configured to provide an alert in response to the analysis message.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present disclosure is directed to a bathroom mirror lighting system comprising a mirror, a light source, a sensor, and a control circuit operably coupled to the light source and the sensor. The control circuit receives a sensor signal from the sensor indicative of at least one of a user's distance from the sensor, a user's position, a user's posture, a motion of the user towards or away from the sensor, or a task being performed by the user. The control circuit then transmits a control signal to the light source causing the light source to alter its light output based on the sensor signal from the sensor.

Abstract: A sink system includes a sink basin and a disposal system. The disposal system includes a first inlet coupled to the sink basin, a second inlet fluidly coupled to a second fluid source, and a garbage disposal configured to receive a first flow of fluid from the sink basin via the first inlet and receive a second flow of fluid from a second fluid source via the second inlet. The sink basin delivers a flow of used water to the disposal system and the second fluid source delivers a flow of clean water to the disposal system.

Abstract: A clean water system includes at least one water tank including water, a plurality of water consuming devices coupled to the water tank, and an automatic dispenser. The automatic dispenser is configured to automatically discharge a predetermined amount of a cleaning compound into water of at least on water tank, wherein the cleaning compound is distributed to the plurality of water consuming devices.

Abstract: A sink system is provided. The sink system is configured for coupling within a recessed cabinet space. The sink system includes a cabinet module and a sink module coupled to an upper end of the cabinet module. The sink module includes a sink basin and a faucet. The sink system further includes a water delivery system configured to receive a flow of water from a utility line and selectively provide the flow of water to the sink module based on a control signal received from a controller. The controller may be a wired or wireless puck that is positioned near the sink basin. The water delivery system may further include a water filtration system, and the digital control valve may provide the flow of water to the water filtration system before the flow of water is provided to the sink module.

Abstract: A cosmetic compact includes a base and a lid. The base defines an inside surface and at least one receptacle for storing a cosmetic item extending from the inside surface into the base. The lid is coupled with the base in a manner allowing the lid to rotate relative to the base about a rotational axis. The rotational axis is substantially perpendicular to the inside surface of the base. The lid is configured to rotatably transition from a closed position where the lid covers the at least one receptacle and an open position where the at least one receptacle is accessible by a user. Other cosmetic compacts and associated methods are also disclosed.
