System remotely monitors inventory levels in real-time., Loadstar Sensors, Inc..

Loadstar Sensors, Inc. has announced the immediate availability of its complete end to end hardware and software solution to automate the process of replenishing inventory at customers' point-of-use sites. This intelligent vendor managed inventory solution, called iVMIT, monitors the level of parts in a bin by weighing its contents. Weight information is transferred from the sensor to a PC running eTurns software via wired (USB) or wireless (Zigbee) protocols. The system computes the number of parts in a bin using weight per part information from a database. The number of parts in each bin is compared to set minimum/maximum levels and suggested orders or alerts are automatically sent to buyers or stockroom managers.
