This invention relates to the automatic identification and measurement of the consumption of an item or items and reporting of consumption of primarily, but not limited to, foodstuffs and provisions, that are typically stored in refrigerators, pantries, cupboards, apparatus and display shelves, store cases, shopping carts and baskets and the like. The invention therefore allows humans to accurately and automatically track their nutritional input, inventory transferal and in-store purchases in real-time. The invention relates to low-cost, printable electronics with integrated micro-electromechanical (MEMS) and/or Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS), wireless inductive power and wireless communication, and targets a low-cost solution applicable to consumer applications.
