Process and arrangement for collecting and storing data related to a condition of an absorbent product

A system for measuring, collecting and storing data related to a condition of an absorbent product, comprising:

• at least one sensor device coupled to an absorbent product and comprising at least one detector for monitoring said condition of said absorbent product, memory for storing measurement data relating to said monitoring, and a transceiver for communicating wirelessly with a communication network for transmission of said measurement data;
• a server configured to communicate with said communication network for receiving said measurement data;
• a first database communicating with said server and being configured to store said measurement data, wherein said first database comprises an intermediate storage of said measurement data received by said server;
• an interpretation program communicating with said server and being configured to access and adapt said measurement data into adapted measurement data;
• and
• a second database communicating with said server and being configured to store said adapted measurement data and being configured to be accessed from at least one application program configured to analyze said adapted measurement data,
• wherein said at least one sensor device is configured, when said sensor device is removed from said absorbent product, to enter a pending state for a predetermined time period during which the sensor device attempts to transmit said measurement data to said server through said communication network, and to shut off said sensor device after said predetermined time period.

A process for measuring, collecting and storing data related to a condition of an absorbent product, comprising:

• providing a plurality of sensor devices, each being arranged to be coupled to an absorbent product and each comprising at least one detector, memory, and a transceiver;
• monitoring said condition of said absorbent product by said detector by collecting measurement data from said detector;
• -storing said measurement data in said memory;
• transmitting via said transceiver said measurement data to a server through wireless communication with a communication network;
• receiving said measurement data in said server arranged to communicate with said communication network and said server transmitting an acknowledgement signal to said sensor device;
• determining by said sensor device whether said acknowledgement signal is received and, if not, retain said measurement data in said memory and then retransmitting, a predetermined time later, said measurement data to said server;
• storing said measurement data in an intermediate manner in a database communicating with said server;
• and
• providing access to said database from at least one application program configured to analyze said measurement data,
• wherein said sensor device enters a pending state for a predetermined time period during which the sensor device attempts to transmit said measurement data to a receiver, when said sensor device is removed from the absorbent product, and then after said predetermined time period, said sensor device shuts off automatically.
