SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR COLLECTING DATA ON PRODUCT CONSUMPTION |
摘要 |
A system and method for collecting data on individual and aggregate use of various wash-room products. The system includes one or more product dispensers having a sensor associated therewith for determining product usage. The sensor communicates usage information to local transmitter which responsively generates a data signal. The data signal is transmitted, such as by wireless techniques, to a central data collection unit. The central data collection unit receives and stores the data signal for later analysis. In exemplary embodiments, usage from a plurality of dispensers can be monitored by a single data collection unit. |
