Smart table devices

Abstract:

Smart table devices determine aspects associated with individual and items at a table. Sensors associated with a table are used to determine a location of each individual from a group of individuals at the table. The sensors also determine the location of a first item on the table. The first item is automatically associated with a first individual from the group of individuals based on proximity of the location of the first item on the table to the location of the first individual at the table. It is also determined using the sensors that the first individual has consumed at least a portion of the first item.
