First Claim
Patent Images
1. A dynamic conditioning system for nutritional substances comprising:
- a reader configured to detect a dynamic information identifier provided with a nutritional substance;
a database with information referenced to the dynamic information identifier and including various conditioning protocols for the nutritional substance;
a sensor configured to detect an attribute of the nutritional substance and output sensor data related to the attribute;
a controller configured to adapt operation of the conditioning system responsive to at least one of the conditioning protocols for the nutritional substance and further configured to modify the at least one conditioning protocol based on the sensor data.
