20230144707 · 2023-05-11 · ·

The present disclosure relates to a smart bottle and a method of controlling the same. The smart bottle includes a bottle for containing liquid and a base that is disposed under the bottle and includes an elastic body that is elastically deformed by the weight of the bottle and the base, a weight measurement sensor disposed above the elastic body and measuring the weight of the bottle by measuring a pressure that the elastic body transfers in a vertical direction from the ground as a reaction to gravity, and a controller that measures the amount of fed milk based on the change in the weight measured by the weight measurement sensor.

Methods for manufacturing capsules with ingestible event markers

Various methods and apparatuses are presented for an ingestible capsule that includes a digital, ingestible sensor component—or ingestible sensor—embedded into the capsule. The ingestible sensor component may be configured to activate upon coming into contact with conductive fluid, such as a body's stomach fluid. Once activated, the ingestible sensor component may be configured to perform various tasks, such as transmitting one or more signals and obtaining biometric data about the body that ingested the capsule.
