Claim 10:
11. 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,, wherein calculating said value in (d) comprises calculating two values comprising a first value and second value, and wherein calculating a first value of said two values 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;
and wherein said first value comprises an estimated wait time to enter said space.
