BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art. [0003] The kitchen is a very important place of a home as it is used every time. When any dish is prepared in the kitchen, plurality of ingredients are required, which are stored in separate containers. Sometime when we open the container, we got to know that an item stored in that container has been finished, and when we are in hurry, it irritates us and we have to rush towards the market to get that item. [0004] Mostly people prepare a list of ration to be bought before going to the market, and to prepare that list, they have to open each of the container, as there is no other way to get that. It is very time taken task, to open the container, check the mount, and close the container. Similarly, when we order grocery online, we have to choose each item manually, only then we can proceed. No container is available in the market which can assist the user for checking the containers automatically, without opening the containers.
[0005] There is a need to overcome above mentioned problem of prior art by bringing a solution where the user can receive information of many attributes of the consumable goods stored inside each container, without opening the containers. Also, the solution enables communication with the containers remotely.

The smart container assembly as claimed in claim 2, wherein when any of the consumable goods stored in the associated primary container or the secondary container reaches below the pre-defined set of attributes, the controller correspondingly transmit a set of fourth signals to the mobile computing devices associated with one of the one or more registered sellers to initiate ordering of the corresponding consumable good.
5. The smart container assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first coupling element facilitates coupling of the primary container with at least one of the set of secondary containers, and the second coupling element facilitates coupling in between each of the set of secondary containers.
6. The smart container assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein at least a first switch is positioned on the primary container, and operatively coupled with the first coupling element to actuate the first coupling element, and at least a second switch is positioned on each of the set of secondary containers, and operatively coupled with the second coupling element to actuate the second coupling element of the associated second container.
7. The smart container assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the controller responds to a query corresponding to the one or more attributes of the consumable goods stored in the primary container, and each of the set of second containers.
8. The smart container assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of the set of secondary containers is in communication with the primary container through a communication module, and the primary container is in communication with the one or more mobile computing devices through said communication module.
9. The smart container assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the one or more sensors includes any or a combination of piezoelectric sensor, weight sensor, load cell, load sensor, infrared sensor, and pressure sensor.
10. The smart container assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first coupling element and second coupling element includes any or a combination of electromagnet, metal, and magnet.
