Abstract:
The present invention is a system and method for determining product movement using a sensor. Through the interaction of a body or items placed near to or on an array of sensors connected to a circuit board controller, the apparatus is configured to detect a change in capacitance caused by the interaction and thereby associate it with a movement or placement of an item or groups of items. Detection and association of such signals recorded in a database with items displaced in a storage location permits a user to keep track of said items remotely through a computing device.

Claim (Index 11):
A method of inventory tracking comprising the steps of:\n detecting a capacitance change when an item is placed or moved on a sensor pad, when a body comes in proximity to said sensor pad, moves relative to said sensor pad after having come in proximity to said sensor pad, or interacts with an item located on or in proximity to said sensor pad; generating a signal signature representative of and based at least in part on said capacitance change; and tracking a movement of said item or said body respectively based in part on a respective change in said item's or said body's location indicated by said signal signature.
