Abstract

A motion sensor arrangement is presented for dispenser capable point-of-purchase devices. The invention includes one or more motion sensors (24) and a power management circuit facilitating activation of visual and motion display elements (25) and/or a dispensing mechanism (26). Motion sensors (24) are attached to a shelf- mountable display unit ( 1 ) and capable of determining the presence of a person within the vicinity of the device. Power management circuit communicates with the motion sensors (24) and display elements (25), examples including light emitting diodes and motorized drive devices. The power management circuit activates one or more display elements (25) to communicate queues to a person within visual range of the point-of- purchase device. The dispensing mechanism (26) ejects a coupon or product information sheet when a person is sensed within the vicinity of the point-of-purchase device. The power management circuit causes display elements (25) and dispensing mechanism (26) to operate in different power modes based at least in part on the determination of the presence of a person by one or more motion sensors (24).
