    Abstract: Utilizing the techniques disclosed herein, sensor data inaccuracies may be corrected such that calculated fill levels more accurately reflect the actual fill level of the item within an automatic replenishment device (ARD). For example, the ARD may include a sensor configured to collect the sensor data (e.g., a distance between the sensor and an item contained within the ARD). Sensor data associated with an item within the ARD may be received. A measurement offset value specific to the item may be identified. An estimated fill level of the item within the ARD may be calculated based at least in part on the distance measured between the sensor and the item and the measurement offset value specific to the item.

    Abstract: Techniques for identifying an automatic replenishment device (ARD) to item pairing based on an interaction by a user with a component of the ARD are disclosed herein. In embodiments, information from an ARD may be received that corresponds to an identify request based at least in part on an interaction with a component of the ARD. The information may include a device identifier for the ARD and a registration token. ARD data that identifies the ARD and the item associated with the ARD may be determined based at least in part on the received information. In accordance with at least one embodiment, a notification may be generated based at least in part on the ARD data where the notification is configured to present the item associated with the ARD. The notification may be transmitted to a user device associated with the ARD.

    Abstract: Techniques for generating an electronic request based on sensor data of an ARD are described. In an example, a computer system receives a message from the ARD The message includes the sensor data and an identifier of the ARD. The computer system identifies the item from a profile associated with the ARD based on the identifier, and determines an amount of the item stored by the ARD based on the sensor data. Further, the computer system generates the electronic request for a replacement amount of the item based on the amount of the item, on a rule, and on a constraint. The electronic request identifies the item and the ARD. The rule specifies a customization of the electronic request based on the item. The constraint specifies a limit on the customization based on the identifier. The computer system causes a delivery of the replacement amount based on the electronic request.

    Abstract: Utilizing the disclosed techniques, automatic item replenishment decisions may be made based on whether or not an item entirely fits on/in an automatic replenishment device (ARD). For example, sensor data associated with an item and an ARD may be received. The sensor data may indicate that an initial amount of the item is in contact with the ARD. A measurement value may be calculated that quantifies the initial amount of the item that is in contact with the ARD. Subsequent sensor updates may be monitored to determine various amounts of the item that are in contact with the ARD. Based at least in part on the measurement value and the monitoring, it may be determined that a surplus amount of the item exists that is external to the ARD. Decisions on whether to generate an automated order for the item may be based on the existence of the surplus amount.
