Shaving implement and method for using same

摘要

In a wet-shave razor (20), a handle (22) is provided and has a razor cartridge (24) mounted thereon at an end thereof. The razor cartridge has at least one razor blade positioned therein. A sensor (34) is mounted to the handle for continuously monitoring and detecting movement of the handle and generating signals indicative thereof. A controller (30) is also mounted to the handle and is in communication with the sensor for continuously receiving signals from the sensor. An indicator (26, 48) is mounted to the handle and is in communication with the controller. During operation, the indicator generates an alert in response to commands received from the controller, the alert being identifiable by a user and indicative of the remaining useful life of the razor cartridge.
