Abstract
An EPF digital record transmission system may be configured to transmit an EPF digital record from an EPF device to a user device. The user device may then transmit the EPF digital record to a host server for storage and processing. The EPF device may also be configured to transmit health data and the user device may be configured to analyze one or both of the health data and the EPF digital record and present a health recommendation.
Claims30
An electronic plumbing fixture (EPF) comprising:
- a measuring device;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory configured to store instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the EPF to:
- record EPF information with the measuring device;
- store the EPF information in an EPF digital record;
- detect a transmitter device configured to transmit the EPF digital record to a host server, wherein the transmitter device comprises a communication interface configured to receive the EPF digital record from the EPF and transmit the EPF digital record to the host server;
- perform, based on detecting the transmitter device, a handshake with the transmitter device;
- and
- based on completion of the handshake, transmit the EPF digital record to the transmitter device, via the communication interface, wherein the transmitter device is further configured to transmit the EPF digital record to the host server via the communication interface.
