The power cord from a TV, Video Game console, or computer monitor plugs into the back of BOB and is locked in place. Then, BOB plugs into an electrical outlet. After setup  a process that takes about three minutes  the machine monitors the amount of time a child spends using that media device. While in use, BOB shows the user logged in and their remaining time available. When the child turns off the device before their allowance is up, Bob stores the unused time for later use. This helps teach the child to manage their time. When a childs preset viewing time expires, BOB beeps for several seconds (asking the child to turn off the TV). If the child doesnt turn off the TV, BOB shuts off the attached TV, video-game system or computer monitor and wont allow it to be turned on by that user for the remainder of the day (or week) until their allowance resets.
