Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method for displaying a value, said computer-implemented method comprising:
(a) providing a housing comprising (i) one or more sensors comprising an ultrasonic sensor, (ii) one or more microcontrollers, and (iii) a display disposed on a surface of said housing;
(b) receiving, by said one or more sensors, an ultrasonic signal corresponding with one or more objects entering a space or exiting said space to produce location data for said one or more objects;
(c) receiving, by said one or more microcontrollers, said location data from said one or more sensors;
(d) calculating, by said one or more microcontrollers, said value, based, at least in part, on said location data received from said one or more sensors in (c);
(e) displaying said value on said display; and
(f) transmitting, by said one or more microcontrollers, said value to a server that transmits said value to one or more electronic devices in wireless communication with said server and said one or more microcontrollers,, wherein said value comprises an estimated wait time to enter said space, and wherein said calculating said value in (d) comprises:
(i) calculating an average time for a first object of said one or more objects to enter said space and a second object of said one or more objects to exit said space; and
(ii) multiplying said average time calculated in (i) by a number of said one or more electronic devices in wireless communication with said one or more microcontrollers.
