Smart table sensor environment

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method for operating a set of electronic sensors. The method includes detecting, by one or more sensors embedded in a table, that a tray associated with a user is placed on the table. The method further includes detecting, by the one or more sensors embedded in the table, a first weight of contents on the tray at a first time, and detecting, by the one or more sensors embedded in the table, a second weight of the contents on the tray at a second time. The method further includes determining a final weight of the contents on the tray when the tray is no longer associated with the user.
