Inventors:

Richard McClellan - Clinton IL, US
John Less - Forsyth IL, US

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705028000, 700236000

Abstract:

In various embodiments, an inventory management system is configured for use in association with at least one container containing an amount of inventory material at a monitored location. The inventory management system includes at least one measurement instrument operatively associated with the container, the measurement instrument being configured to generate at least one data signal representative of the amount of the inventory material in the container. The inventory management system also includes a telemetry unit in communication with the measurement instrument, the telemetry unit being configured to receive at least the generated data signal from the measurement instrument and to convert the generated data signal into inventory information. The inventory management system also includes a first server in communication with the telemetry unit, the first server configured to receive at least the inventory information from the telemetry unit; and at least a second server in communication with the first server, the second server configured for receiving at least the inventory information from the first server via an Internet connection, the second server being configured to process the inventory information for presentation on at least one website.
