In one embodiment, the present disclosure includes a cloud computer system for controlling a plurality of remote devices comprising a cloud server including a cloud based operating system comprising a data model stored in a computer memory. The data model includes commands that may be performed by a plurality of remote devices in a remote system and, for each remote device, one or more operations for triggering processes executed by the remote device. The cloud based operating system generates a set of instructions from the plurality of commands and corresponding operations to control a portion of the remote devices to perform a task.

Some embodiments of the current invention relate to an automatic and/or sanitary dry goods dispenser. Optionally, a manual dispenser may be upgraded for automatic dispensing. For example, a motor optionally opens and/or closes a dispensing valve fully and/or partially. For example, the opening and closing may be adjusted to achieve a desired flow rate and/or dispensing volume. Optionally, the device may include a valve biased to a closed configuration. Optionally, a motor that opens the valve for a fixed time and/or for as long as a switch remains in an activated and/or oscillates the valve. Additionally or alternatively, a manual operation option is available. In some embodiments, the opening and/or closing may be preprogrammed. For example, a user will purchase goods and/or a program will be transferred to the dispenser according to his purchase.

Systems are disclosed for dispensing, weighing, identifying, processing, and/or printing tag identifiers for items (e.g., bulk food items). In one embodiment, a storage system includes a scoop bin configured to store a product, wherein the scoop bin has a lid configured to be moved between a closed position and an open position, and wherein the product is configured to be scooped out of the scoop bin by a customer when the lid is in the open position. The system further includes a sensor configured to monitor a movement of the scoop bin, wherein the sensor is configured to transmit a notification to the computing device identifying the movement of the scoop bin. A printer is configured to receive an instruction from the computing device to automatically print a label identifying the product stored in the scoop bin following the computing device receiving the notification of the movement.

The disclosure relates to systems and methods for a bulk bin dispenser. In one embodiment, the system includes a bulk bin dispenser configured to store a product with a distinct weight. The system further includes a digital scale configured to measure a change in weight of the bulk bin dispenser when a portion of the product is dispensed into a portable container, wherein the change in the weight is a dispensed weight of the portion of the product dispensed into the portable container. The system further includes a processor configured to transmit an associated cost for the portion of the product dispensed into the portable container to a store check-out system without printing a label for the dispensed weight.
