Systems for providing condition-based data from a user interactive device

1. A dispenser including:

a housing;

a container carried by the housing for holding a fluid;

an outlet in fluid communication with the container;

a dispensing mechanism disposed in the housing and operable to supply the fluid from the container to the outlet;

a wireless transmitter storing application identifying data identifying an application associated with a user interactive device;

a controller in circuit communication with the wireless transmitter, wherein the controller is configured to communicate dispenser condition data to the wireless transmitter; and

wherein the wireless transmitter is a beacon transmitter that is configured to periodically wirelessly transmit a broadcast data packet including the application identifying data and the dispenser condition data without establishing a connection with a user interactive device receiving the data packet; and

wherein when a user interactive device includes an application software that is identified by the application identifying data, and

wherein the application software causes the user interactive device to recognize the data packet, process the data and transmit at least a portion of the data to a remote computing device.

2. The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the wireless transmitter comprises one of a Bluetooth® beacon and an iBeacon® protocol beacon device.

3. The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the application identifying data comprises a universally unique identifier (UUID).

4. The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the dispenser condition data comprises data corresponding to at least one of a battery charge level, motor performance information, a fluid fill level, usage of the dispenser, cumulative usage of the dispenser, time of use of the dispenser, fluid identification data, and user identification data.

5. The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the broadcast data packet further includes dispenser location data.

6. The dispenser of claim 1 , further comprising a fluid fill level sensor in communication with the controller to provide fluid fill level data to the controller, wherein the dispenser condition data includes the fluid fill level data.

7. The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the broadcast data packet further includes mobile device location data.

8. The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the controller generates the dispenser condition data in response to user actuation of dispensing mechanism.

9. A system comprising:

a dispenser including:

a housing;

a container carried by the housing for holding a fluid;

an outlet in fluid communication with the container;

a dispensing mechanism disposed in the housing and operable to supply the fluid from the container to the outlet;

a wireless transmitter storing application identifying data identifying an application associated with the user interactive device; and

a controller in circuit communication with the wireless transmitter, wherein the controller is configured to communicate dispenser condition data to the wireless transmitter;

wherein the wireless transmitter is a beacon that is configured to periodically wirelessly transmit a broadcast data packet including the application identifying data and the dispenser condition data without establishing a connection with a mobile device;

wherein when a mobile device is in proximity with the dispenser, and the mobile device has application software that is identified by the application identifying data, the application software causes the mobile device to recognize the data packet, process the data and transmit at least a portion of the data; and

a remote computing device for receiving the data transmitted from the mobile device.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the broadcast data packet further including the dispenser location data.

11. The system of claim 9 , wherein the dispenser condition data comprises data corresponding to at least one of a battery charge level, a fluid fill level, frequency of usage of the dispenser, cumulative usage of the dispenser, time of use of the dispenser, fluid identification data, and user identification data.

12. The system of claim 9 , wherein the controller generates the dispenser condition data in response to user actuation of dispensing mechanism.

13. The system of claim 9 , wherein the dispenser condition data comprises usage data corresponding to time of use of the dispenser.

14. A system comprising:

a soap or sanitizing dispenser including:

a housing;

a container carried by the housing for holding a soap or sanitizer;

a dispensing mechanism for causing soap or sanitizer to be dispensed from the container;

a wireless transmitter that is a beacon that periodically transmits a signal without establishing a connection with a mobile device; and

memory;

application identifying data identifying an application configured to wirelessly receive data from the soap or sanitizer dispenser; and

a controller in circuit communication with the wireless transmitter;

wherein the controller causes the wireless transmitter to continuously wirelessly transmit a broadcast data packet including the application identifying data and a dispenser condition data to a mobile device that contains application software that is identified by the application identifying data and causes the mobile device to receive the data packet when the mobile device is in proximity with the dispenser, process that data pack and transmitting at least a portion of the data to a remote computing device.

15. The system of claim 14 further comprising an application for a mobile device, wherein the application is configured to receive application identifying data and the dispenser condition.

16. The system of claim 15 further comprising a mobile device.

17. The system of claim 16 further comprising a server for receiving the dispenser condition data from the mobile device.

18. The system of claim 15 wherein the dispenser condition is indicative of a usage rate.

19. The system of claim 15 wherein the dispenser condition is indicative of a volume of soap or sanitizer.
