     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     Embodiments described herein generally relate to features that maybe utilized on a degradable containment and, more specifically, to features for a paper water bottle. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Landfills are filled with plastic bottles that may take years to degrade or which are non-biodegradable. This is because many plastics are not recyclable or they are not properly recycled. Many that are recyclable never reach recycling centers. A beverage company would find it desirable to use ecologically safe containers not only because of the ecological benefits in reusing materials, but because it would reinforce their public esteem. 
     While current containers utilize a plurality of layers, where at least one of the layers is constructed of a degradable material, various features for these and other types of containers remain deficient. As such, a need exists in the industry for improved features for an ecologically safe container. 
     SUMMARY 
     According to first aspect of the present disclosure, a degradable containment comprises an outer structural layer constructed of a pulp material, a central carrier layer constructed of a biopolymer and an interior nanomaterial layer constructed of a nanomaterial. 
     According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, a degradable containment comprises an outer structural layer constructed of a pulp material including wood by-products, bamboo, hemp, minerals, agricultural waste, recycled materials, or a mixture of two or more thereof; a central carrier layer constructed of a biopolymer including polyhydroxyalkanoate, polybutylene succinate, lignin, or a mixture of two or more thereof; and an interior nanomaterial layer constructed of a nanomaterial including at least one of a silicon dioxide nanomaterial and a zinc oxide nanomaterial. 
     According to third aspect of the present disclosure, a degradable containment comprises an outer structural layer constructed of a pulp material including any organic or organic-based products, such as wood by-products (including paper), bamboo, hemp, minerals, agricultural waste, recycled materials, or a mixture of two or more thereof; a central carrier layer constructed of a biopolymer including polyhydroxyalkanoate, polybutylene succinate, lignin, or a mixture of two or more thereof; an interior nanomaterial layer constructed of a nanomaterial including at least one of a silicon dioxide nanomaterial and a zinc oxide nanomaterial; and a modular containment neck secured in a top portion of the degradable containment.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
     The present disclosure provides a degradable containment including an outer structural layer constructed of a pulp material, a central carrier layer constructed of a biopolymer, and an interior nanomaterial layer constructed of a nanomaterial. The central carrier layer may act as a fluid barrier and prevent deterioration of the outer structural layer. In some embodiments, the central carrier layer may degrade relatively quickly. As such, an interior nanomaterial layer with a slower deterioration rate (but still degradable) may be utilized to extend the shelf life of the central carrier layer and the degradable containment as a whole. The central carrier layer may enable adhesion between the interior nanomaterial layer and the outer structural layer. The carrier layer may provide the structural support necessary for the degradable containment, eliminating the need for an outer structural layer. The degradable containment may also include a modular containment neck configured to seal fluid inside the containment. 
     In accordance with one aspect of the present disclosure, a degradable containment comprises an outer structural layer constructed of a pulp material, a central carrier layer constructed of a biopolymer, and an interior nanomaterial layer constructed of a nanomaterial. 
     In one embodiment, the pulp material may be created from any organic or organic-based products, such as wood by-products (including paper), bamboo, hemp, minerals, agricultural waste, recycled materials, or a mixture of two or more thereof. Similarly, some embodiments of the biopolymer include polyhydroxyalkanoate, polybutylene succinate, lignin, or a mixture of two or more thereof In some embodiments, the biopolymer is dispersed in a solvent, the solvent including dichloromethane, dichlorodimethylsilane, hydrofluoroether, or a mixture of two or more thereof In some embodiments, the nanomaterial includes silicon dioxide nanomaterial or zinc oxide nanomaterial. Similarly, some embodiments may be configured with the biopolymer including polyhydroxyalkanoate, polybutylene succinate, lignin, or a mixture of two or more thereof, the biopolymer being dispersed in a solvent, the solvent including dichloromethane, dichlorodimethylsilane, hydrofluoroether, or a mixture of two or more thereof, and the nanomaterial including at least one of a silicon dioxide nanomaterial and a zinc oxide nanomaterial. 
     In accordance with a second aspect of the present disclosure, a degradable containment comprises an outer structural layer constructed of a pulp material created from any organic or organic-based products, such as wood by-products (including paper), bamboo, hemp, minerals, agricultural waste, recycled materials, or a mixture of two or more thereof; a central carrier layer constructed of a biopolymer including polyhydroxyalkanoate, polybutylene succinate, lignin, or a mixture of two or more thereof; and an interior nanomaterial layer constructed of a nanomaterial including at least one of a silicon dioxide nanomaterial and a zinc oxide nanomaterial. 
     In one embodiment, the central carrier layer is applied directly to the interior surface of the outer structural layer and the interior nanomaterial layer is applied directly to an interior surface of the central carrier layer. In some embodiments, the central carrier layer and the interior nanomaterial layer are included in a combined layer applied directly to an interior surface of the outer structural layer. Similarly, some embodiments may be configured with the biopolymer being dispersed in a solvent, the solvent including dichloromethane, dichlorodimethylsilane, hydrofluoroether, or a mixture of two or more thereof. In another embodiment, the outer structural layer includes two mirror halves that are pieced together during production before the central carrier layer and the interior nanomaterial layer are applied. In another embodiment, the outer structural layer includes two mirror halves, each mirror half having at least one flange, the at least one flange from one of the two mirror halves aligning with the at least one flange from the other of the two mirror halves to seal the outer structural layer, the central carrier layer, and the interior nanomaterial layer together. Similarly, some embodiments may be configured with at least one of the central carrier layer and the interior nanomaterial layer extending onto the at least one flange of each of the two mirror halves and acting as an adhesive to seal the outer structural layer, the central carrier layer, and the interior nanomaterial layer together. In some embodiments, the central carrier layer and the interior nanomaterial layer extend from a cavity of the degradable containment, wrap around the outer structural layer at a lid receiving portion of the degradable containment, and continue on to cover at least a portion of an exterior surface of the outer structural layer. 
     In accordance with a third aspect of the present disclosure, a degradable containment comprises an outer structural layer constructed of a pulp material including any organic or organic-based products, such as wood by-products (including paper), bamboo, hemp, minerals, agricultural waste, recycled materials, or a mixture of two or more thereof; a central carrier layer constructed of a biopolymer including polyhydroxyalkanoate, polybutylene succinate, lignin, or a mixture of two or more thereof; an interior nanomaterial layer constructed of a nanomaterial including at least one of a silicon dioxide nanomaterial and a zinc oxide nanomaterial; and a modular containment neck secured in a top portion of the degradable containment. 
     In one embodiment, the modular containment neck may be constructed with similar materials as the containment and thus may include polypropylene, high density polyethylene, a biodegradable polymer, a biodegradable non-polymer, polypropylene, high density polyethylene, biopolymer (including polyhydroxyalkanoate, polybutylene succinate, lignin, or a mixture of two or more thereof) or a mixture thereof In another embodiment, the modular containment neck includes at least one tab configured to secure the modular containment neck in the top portion of the degradable containment. In another embodiment, the modular containment neck includes a screw-top configured to form a seal between the degradable containment and the modular containment neck. In another embodiment, the modular containment neck includes a securing flange configured to secure the modular containment neck in the top portion of the degradable containment. In another embodiment, the degradable containment further includes a lid securable to the modular containment neck. 
     Additional advantages of the degradable containment features described herein will be set forth, and in part will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art from that description or recognized by practicing the embodiments described herein, including the detailed description, the claims, as well as the appended drawings. 
     Reference will now be made in detail to various embodiments of degradable containment features. According to one embodiment, a degradable containment includes an outer structural layer constructed of a pulp material, a central carrier layer constructed of a biopolymer, and an interior nanomaterial layer constructed of nanomaterial. In embodiments, the pulp material includes any organic or organic-based products, such as wood by-products (including paper), bamboo, hemp, minerals, agricultural waste, recycled materials, or a mixture of two or more thereof; the biopolymer includes polyhydroxyalkanoate, polybutylene succinate, lignin, or a mixture of two or more thereof; and the nanomaterial includes at least one of a silicon dioxide nanomaterial and a zinc oxide nanomaterial. In some embodiments, the degradable containment further includes a modular containment neck secured in a top portion of the degradable containment. 
     Various embodiments of degradable containment features will now be described in further detail herein with specific references to the illustrative drawings. 
     Referring now to the drawings,  FIGS.  1  and  2    depict containments according to embodiments described herein. The containment may take the form of a bottle  102  as illustrated in  FIG.  1   , ajar  104  as illustrated in  FIG.  2   , a container, or other receptacle for fluid or solid. In embodiments, the containment may be a paper water bottle. 
     The containment may be sized to define a predetermined interior volume for containing fluid (e.g., a volume of the cavity). For example, the containment may define an interior volume of about 1 milliliter (ml), about 10 ml, about 50 ml, about 100 ml, about 250 ml, about 500 ml, about 750 ml, about 1 liter, about 1.5 liter, about 2 liter, about 2.5 liter, about 5 liter, about 10 liter, etc., or any value or range between any two of these values (including endpoints). However, it should be understood that the volumes listed herein are merely illustrative and that the embodiments described herein are not limited to such. 
     Referring now to  FIGS.  3  and  4   , an exemplary multi-layered containment according to embodiments described herein is shown at  110 . As illustrated, the containment  110  may take the form of a bottle. The containment  110  may include an outer structural layer  112 , a central carrier layer  114 , and an interior nanomaterial layer  116 . The containment  110  represents one-half of a bottle that may be assembled with another half to create the bottle. 
     The outer structural layer  112  may be constructed of an environmentally friendly, recyclable, degradable (such as biodegradable, compostable, solar degradable, polymer or non-polymer material, and/or other eco-friendly material) material. The outer structural layer  112  may be constructed of an organic or organic-based material. The outer structural layer  112  may be constructed of a pulp material. The outer structural layer  112  may be constructed of wood by-products (including paper), bamboo, hemp, bagasse, or a mixture of two or more thereof. The outer structural layer  112  may be formed to define the desired size and/or shape for the containment  110 . The outer structural layer  112  may have a thickness to achieve the desired structural integrity, rigidity, thermal properties, and insulating properties for the particular application. As an example, a disposable water bottle may have predetermined properties that are relatively standard in the industry. Other containments may alter these properties based on the particular application. The outer structural layer  112  may have a similar structural integrity and rigidity as an aluminum can or a plastic bottle. 
     The central carrier layer  114  may be constructed of a biodegradable polymer, such as polypropylene, polyethylene, or a mixture of thereof. The central carrier layer  114  may be constructed of a degradable polymer or non-polymer material or other similar material. In embodiments, the central carrier layer  114  may be constructed of biopolymer, such as polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), polybutylene succinate (PBS), lignin, or a mixture of two or more thereof. The central carrier layer  114  may include a biopolymer dispersed in a solvent. The solvent may include dichloromethane (DCM), dichlorodimethylsilane (DCMS), hydrofluoroether, or a mixture of two or more thereof. The biopolymer and solvent may be present in the central carrier layer  114  in varying concentrations to achieve the desired properties. The central carrier layer  114  may be sprayed onto an interior surface of the outer structural layer  112 , applied as a film to an interior surface of the outer structural layer  112  in a layering process, or coated onto an interior surface of the outer structural layer  112  in a bathing process. The central carrier layer  114  may be liquid impermeable, whereas the outer structural layer  112  may be subject to at least some permeability. However, depending on the particular biopolymer utilized for the central carrier layer  114 , degradation of the central carrier layer  114  may occur relatively quickly. 
     The interior nanomaterial layer  116  may be constructed of a nanomaterial, such as silicon dioxide nanomaterial, zinc oxide nanomaterial, or a mixture thereof. In embodiments, the interior nanomaterial layer  116  may be sprayed onto an interior surface of the central carrier layer  114 . In embodiments, the interior nanomaterial layer  116  may be layered upon the central carrier layer  114 . In embodiments, the central carrier layer  114  may include a biopolymer as described above and the interior nanomaterial layer  116  may include a nanomaterial as described above. In embodiments, the central carrier layer  114  may include a biopolymer and a solvent as described above and the interior nanomaterial layer  116  may include a nanomaterial as described above. In some embodiments, the central carrier layer  114  and the interior nanomaterial layer  116  may be included a combined layer, such as a pre-layered film or a liquid mixture, and applied to the outer structural layer  112  in a single application. A pre-layered film including the central carrier layer  114  and the interior nanomaterial layer  116  may be applied to an interior surface of the outer structural layer  112 . A liquid mixture may include the nanomaterial mixed in liquid form with the biopolymer and applied to the outer structural layer  112 . The pre-layered film or liquid mixture may include a biopolymer, a solvent, and a nanomaterial as described above. The biopolymer, solvent, and nanomaterials may be present in the pre-layered film or liquid mixture in varying concentrations to achieve the desired properties. 
     The nanoparticle structures (i.e., silicon dioxide, zinc oxide, or a combination thereof) of the interior nanomaterial layer  116  according to embodiments described herein may have properties that may not be present in conventional oxide coatings (e.g., ceramic silicon oxide, zinc oxide, or other metal oxide coatings). For example, in embodiments, the nanoparticle structures may be biodegradeable. In some embodiments, the nanoparticle structures may increase water, temperature, and alkali resistance of the overlying central carrier layer  114 . In other embodiments, the nanoparticle structures may increase the gas barrier properties (e.g., carbon dioxide, oxygen, water vapor, etc.) of the overlying central carrier layer  114 . In some embodiments, the nanoparticle structures may increase the shelf life of the containment  110  by providing an additional protective layer to the overlying central carrier layer  114 , such as by insulating the central carrier layer  114  from contents contained in the containment  110 . Similarly, in other embodiments, the nanoparticle structures may provide ultraviolet light protection to the overlying central carrier layer  114 . In some embodiments, the nanoparticle structures may be pressure wash resistant during containment cleaning or filling. In other embodiments, the nanoparticle structures may exhibit hydrophobic and/or super hydrophobic properties, such as anti-static (i.e., resist dust and dirt depositing on the surface). Hydrophobic layers may also be self-cleaning. Since liquids do not adhere to a hydrophobic surface, almost all of the contents of a containment  110  having an interior nanomaterial layer  116  may empty out of the containment  110 . In some embodiments, zinc oxide nanomaterial may be antibacterial (i.e., selective toxicity to bacteria). In other embodiments, the interior nanomaterial layer  116  may not be visible. 
     In some embodiments, the outer structural layer  112  may have a texture that does not easily allow application of a nanomaterial directly onto the outer structural layer  112 . However, introduction of the biopolymer allows both adhesion between the interior nanomaterial layer  116  and the outer structural layer  112 , as well as longer shelf life that might not be available if only the biopolymer was used. 
     It should be understood that in embodiments, the containment  110  may include a structural layer  112  and a carrier layer  114 , but lack a nanomaterial layer  116 . In some embodiments, the containment  110  may include a structural layer  112  and a nanomaterial layer  116 , but lack a carrier layer  114 . In still some embodiments, the containment  110  may include a carrier layer  114  and a nanomaterial layer  115 , but lack a structural layer  112 . 
     Referring now to  FIGS.  5 - 7   , a collapsible core  120  may be utilized to form an outer structural layer of a containment according to embodiments described herein. The collapsible core  120  enables the formation of an outer structural layer as a single, unitary piece. The collapsible core  120  may include a screen material  122  or other configuration. During manufacturing, pulp material of the outer structural layer is on the outside of the screen material  122 . Vacuum or mechanical pressure may be inserted onto the inside of the collapsible core  120  to cause the fully extended collapsible core  120  as shown in  FIG.  6    to collapse as shown in  FIG.  7    to enable removal of the collapsible core  120  from the outer structural layer after the outer structural layer is formed. 
       FIGS.  8  and  9    depict the collapsible core  120  in additional detail according to embodiments described herein. As illustrated, a cylinder  124  may include a plurality of leaves  124   a,    124   b,    124   c,    124   d,  which may expand or retract to define the desired containment size and/or shape. Once the size of the cylinder  124  is defined, the collapsible core  120  may be expanded to create the desired thickness of the pulp material for the outer structural layer of the containment. The pulp material is then placed between the cylinder  124  and the collapsible core  120 . Upon setting the pulp material, the collapsible core  120  may be collapsed and removed to allow the pulp material to cure. 
     It should be understood that embodiments may be configured such that, while the collapsible core  120  may be fully collapsed and removed from the cylinder  124  upon setting the pulp material, this is one example. In embodiments, the collapsible core  120  may collapse slightly, such that when the pulp material contracts during curing, the pulp material maintains the desired size and shape for the containment. In embodiments, more than one collapsible core  120  may be used to form the outer structural layer. 
     Referring now to  FIGS.  10  and  11   , another exemplary multi-layered containment according to embodiments described herein is shown at  210 . As illustrated, the containment  210  may take the form of a necked bottle. The containment  210  may be constructed of two halves, as described above. In some embodiments, the two halves may be separate pieces, while some embodiments may be constructed as a single piece that is folded over and sealed at the remaining portions of the periphery. Regardless, the outer structural layer  212  may have two mirror image halves  212   a,    212   b  that are pieced together during production. In post-assembly processing embodiments, after piecing the two mirror image halves  212   a,    212   b  of the outer structural layer  212  together, a central carrier layer  214  and an interior nanomaterial layer  216  may be applied to an interior surface of the outer structural layer  212 . As discussed above, the central carrier layer  214  may be applied directly to the outer structural layer  212 . In embodiments, the central carrier layer  214  and/or the interior nanomaterial layer  216  may be applied as a combined film or liquid mixture to the outer structural layer  212 . 
     Referring now to  FIGS.  12 - 14   , another embodiment of the multi-layered containment of  FIG.  10    according to embodiments described herein is shown at  310 . In embodiments, two mirror halves  312   a,    312   b  of an outer structural layer  312  of a containment  310  may each have at least one flange  320  that may be utilized to further secure a central carrier layer  314  and/or interior nanomaterial layer  316 . Specifically, when the two mirror halves  312   a,    312   b  are sealed together as illustrated in  FIG.  14   , the at least one flange  320  of each of the mirror halves  312   a,    312   b  may align to provide additional surface area to seal the three layers  312 ,  314 ,  316  together. The central carrier layer  314  and/or interior nanomaterial layer  316  may extend onto the at least one flange  320  of each of the mirror halves  312   a,    312   b  of the outer structural layer  312  and act as an adhesive to seal the three layers  312 ,  314 ,  316  together, eliminating the need for an additional adhesive or fastener. Sealing may be performed using any suitable techniques depending on the materials used for the three layers  312 ,  314 ,  316 , such as by employing heat, pressure, or radio frequency energy. 
     Referring now to  FIGS.  15  and  16   , in embodiments, a central carrier layer  414  and an interior nanomaterial layer  416  may be used to cover at least a portion of an exterior surface of the outer structural layer  412  of the containment  410 . As described above, the central carrier layer  414  and the interior nanomaterial layer  416  may be sprayed on, layered, and/or otherwise adhered to the outer structural layer  412 . As shown, the central carrier layer  414  and the interior nanomaterial layer  416  may extend from a cavity of the containment  410 , wrap around the outer structural layer  412  at a lid receiving portion  422  of the containment  410 , and continue on to cover at least a portion of an exterior surface of outer structural layer  412  of the containment  410 . In embodiments, the central carrier layer  414  and/or the interior nanomaterial layer  416  may cover a substantial portion or the entire exterior surface of the containment  410 . Additionally, embodiments may only cover the lid receiving portion  422  or other sub-region of the containment  410 . In embodiments, the central carrier layer  414  and/or the interior nanomaterial layer  416  may, upon curing or drying, shrink and wrap around the outer structural layer  412  at the lid receiving portion  422  of the containment  410 . In embodiments, the central carrier layer  414  and/or the interior nanomaterial layer  416  may be removably secured to the external surface of the containment  410 . In examples where permanent adhesion to the exterior surface of the containment  410  is not a priority, embodiments may or may not utilize both the central carrier layer  414  and the interior nanomaterial layer  416 . Specifically, as one function of the biopolymer is adhesion, embodiments may not utilize the central carrier layer  414 . Similarly, in those embodiments where shelf life is acceptable using only the biopolymer, those embodiments may not utilize the interior nanomaterial layer  416 . 
     As illustrated, the interior nanomaterial layer  416  may be exposed and thus may line the lid receiving portion  422  of the containment  410 . The lid receiving portion  422  may include a threaded configuration or other configuration for receiving and removably securing a lid  424 . Having the interior nanomaterial layer  416  exposed allows a lid  424  with another liquid impermeable material (or the same material) to contact the interior nanomaterial layer  416 , thereby creating a liquid tight seal. 
     Referring now to  FIG.  17   , an exemplary interchangeable package component according to embodiments described herein is shown. The modular containment neck  530  may be made of a biodegradable polymer such as polypropylene, high density polyethylene, biopolymer (including polyhydroxyalkanoate, polybutylene succinate, lignin, or a mixture of two or more thereof) or a mixture thereof. The modular containment neck  530  may be made of a biodegradable non-polymer or the like. The modular containment neck  530  may be inserted into a top portion of a previously formed containment  510 . The modular containment neck  530  may be formed to enable use with differently sized and shaped containments. For example, some embodiments may be configured such that the modular containment neck  530  is manufactured for various types of containments at a reduced cost. In these embodiments, the modular containment neck  530  may allow a manufacturer to delay making a decision about what type of containment to produce based on consumer demand. In some embodiments, a modular containment neck  530  may enable a user to replace or switch out a first lid (or first modular portion) for a second lid (or second modular portion) depending on the desired function of the containment  510 . As shown, in embodiments, a first portion of the modular containment neck  530  may extend into the containment  510  and a second portion of the modular containment neck  530  may remain outside the containment  510 . In embodiments, the entire modular containment neck  530  may be located inside the containment  510 . The containment  510  may be constructed to include at least one tab  526  that matches up with at least one tab  532  from the modular containment neck  530  to secure the modular containment neck  530  in place. The modular containment neck  530  may include a standard screw-top configuration or other configuration that allows sealing of the fluid inside the containment  510 , both between a lid  524  and the modular containment neck  530  and between the containment  510  and the modular containment neck  530 . 
     It should be understood that tabs  526  and tabs  532  maybe configured as a solitary section of material that extends from an edge of the bottle. However, some embodiments may be configured such that the tabs  526  and/or tabs  532  are configured to extend along a larger portion (or the entirety) of a side of the containment  510 . 
     Referring now to  FIGS.  18 - 20   , another exemplary modular containment neck according to embodiments described herein is shown at  630 . The modular containment neck  630  may include a securing flange  634  that secures the modular containment neck  630  to a containment  610 . In embodiments, the containment  610  may be constructed with two halves  610   a,    610   b  secured together. The modular containment neck  630  may be inserted between the two halves  610   a,    610   b,  thus being secured when the two halves  610   a,    610   b  are secured together as illustrated in  FIGS.  19  and  20   . The modular containment neck  630  may include a peel-off  636  and/or threaded  638  portion, to which a lid  624  may be removably secured. 
     Referring now to  FIG.  21   , another exemplary modular containment neck according to embodiments described herein is shown at  730 . The modular containment neck  730  may be smaller than and/or trimmed down from the modular containment neck  530  in  FIG.  17   . The modular containment neck  730  may include foil laminated stock  740  as illustrated in  FIG.  22   , a snap on lid  742  as illustrated in  FIG.  23   , and a threaded lid  744  as illustrated in  FIG.  24   . An edge of the containment  710  at a neck  710   a  may receive the closure  740 ,  742 ,  744 , which may be made of pulp or may include a second layer of material applied to the pulp or may be an inserted component added to the pulp. The closures  740 ,  742 ,  744  may be made of biodegradable and/or non-biodegradable materials. Additionally, the closures  740 ,  742 ,  744  may be a flap of pulp hinged from the containment  710 . 
     Referring now to  FIGS.  25 - 30   , an exemplary lid according to embodiments described herein is shown. The electronic display lid  824  includes a pulp material layer  824   a , a magnetic and/or conductive material layer  824   b,  and a circuitry layer  824   c.  The circuitry layer  824   c  may include tone technology or other circuitry, an illuminated readout screen, a power supply, temperature gauge, positioning system, etc., depending on the embodiment. Accordingly, embodiments may be configured such that the containment  810  includes a receiving section  850 . When the electronic display lid  824  is removed and placed in the receiving section  850 , this may complete the circuit to illuminate the display  824   d.  The receiving section  850  may also include a magnet or other adhesive to allow the electronic display lid  824  to be removably secured to the receiving section  850 . The display  824   d  may provide information, such as results of a sweepstakes, product information, commercials, etc. 
     It should be understood that embodiments may include a power supply in the electronic display lid  824 , such that attaching the electronic display lid  824  to the receiving section  850  is not necessary. As an example, once the electronic display lid  824  is removed, a circuit may be completed, thereby allowing power to be applied to the circuitry and/or display. Thus, once opened, the display may show the desired information. 
     Similarly, embodiments may be provided to output an inaudible tone that may be perceptible to a mobile device or other computing device. The inaudible tone may activate advertisements on the mobile device, and/or perform other functions.
