Abstract
Embodiments are directed to an apparatus for tracking usage of a product. The apparatus includes the following: a structural layer that includes at least some portion of electrically conductive material, an adhesive layer, a microcontroller, and a transceiver. The microcontroller is electrically connected to the conductive material in the structural layer, and is configured to monitor the conductive material for changes in at least one electrical property. Upon determining that an electrical property has changed, the microcontroller determines where the apparatus is located and when the change occurred, and further reports the determination to various specified entities.
