A device for measuring and processing one or more conditions of a container, the device comprising:
- one or more microcontrollers;
- one or more temperature sensors configured to measure one or more temperatures inside the container, generate one or more temperature signals associated with one or more temperature data representing the measured one or more temperatures inside the container, and output the one or more temperature signals to the one or more microcontrollers;
- one or more humidity sensors configured to measure one or more humidity levels outside the container, generate one or more humidity signals associated with one or more humidity data representing the measured one or more humidity levels, and output the one or more humidity signals to the one or more microcontrollers;
- one or more optodes configured to measure one or more concentrations of one or more first materials within a content of the container and generate one or more optode data;
- one or more optical sensors configured to detect one or more optical signals and generate one or more optical data to determine whether the container was emptied at any point in time;
- one or more capacitive sensors configured to generate one or more capacitive data to determine presence or absence of one or more second materials within the container;
- one or more GPS devices configured to detect one or more GPS signals and generate one or more location data to determine one or more positions of the container;
- one or more memories coupled to the one or more microcontrollers;
- a housing configured to enclose at least the one or more microcontrollers and the one or more memories, the housing being embedded in a neck of the container;
- and
- one or more displays coupled to the one or more microcontrollers;
- wherein the one or more microcontrollers are configured to store the one or more temperature data, the one or more humidity data, the one or more optode data;
- the one or more optical date, the one or more capacitive data, and the one or more location data to the one or more memories coupled to the one or more microcontrollers;
- wherein the one or more microcontrollers are further configured to:
- determine one or more rate-of-change data representing one or more rates of changes for the one or more temperature data;
- and
- store the determined one or more rate-of-change data to the one or more memories;
- wherein:
- the one or more displays are configured to display at least some of the one or more rate-of-change data stored in the one or more memories;
- and
- the housing is tamper resistant and configured to prevent one or more users from altering the one or more temperature data, the one or more humidity data, and the one or more rate-of-change data;
- wherein the one or more microcontrollers are further configured to:
- process information associated with the one or more location data and the one or more capacitive data;
- determine whether the content of the container has been re-routed to an unapproved site and removed from the container based on at least information associated with the one or more location data and the one or more capacitive data;
- wherein the one or more microcontrollers are further configured to:
- process information associated with the one or more temperature data, the one or more humidity data, and the one or more optode data;
- determine an overall quality of the content as a function of storage conditions over time;
- and
- indicate to a user an overall score and a specific timeframe for which the content of the container is best consumed.
