Facilitation of value-based sorting of objects

Abstract

This disclosure comprises a solution that can sort objects based on values under various circumstances for the purpose of grouping objects and determining recommended placement or disposition of the objects. An object can be assigned a monetary value, a sentimental value, and a practical value. The practical value can be entered individually for the object via the web or virtual assistant access to the object inventory. The practical value can also be estimated via sensors on or proximate to the object that can sense activity related to the object.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method, comprising:
 monitoring, by a network node device comprising a processor, an object in an environment associated with a user identity of a user;   determining, by the network node device, based on the monitoring, a monetary value of the object, a sentimental value of the object, and a practical value of the object; and   determining, by the network node device, a recommendation for a disposition of the object based on the monetary value, the sentimental value, and the practical value.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein determining the recommendation for the disposition of the object comprises selecting the disposition from a group of dispositions comprising keeping the object, selling the object, donating the object, and moving the object to a trash location. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , further comprising:
 in response to selecting the disposition to be the selling of the object, generating, by the network node device, sales data representative of a sales listing for the object to be made available in an online marketplace.   
     
     
         4 . The method of the  claim 1 , wherein the monitoring comprises determining a condition of the object, and the determining the monetary value comprises determining the monetary value based on the condition of the object. 
     
     
         5 . The method of the  claim 1 , wherein the monitoring comprises determining a first attribute of the object that corresponds to a second attribute associated with the user identity, and the determining of the sentimental value comprises determining the sentimental value based on the first attribute and the second attribute. 
     
     
         6 . The method of the  claim 1 , wherein the monitoring comprises determining an amount of utilization of the object, and the determining of the practical value comprises determining the practical value based on the amount of utilization of the object. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising sending, by the network node device, the recommendation to a user equipment associated with the user identity. 
     
     
         8 . A network device, comprising:
 a processor; and   a memory, coupled to the processor, that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
 monitoring an object in an environment associated with a user; 
 generating, based on the monitoring, a monetary value of the object, a sentimental value of the object, and a practical value of the object; and 
 generating a recommendation for a disposition of the object based on the monetary value, the sentimental value, and the practical value. 
   
     
     
         9 . The network device of  claim 8 , wherein generating the recommendation for the disposition of the object comprises selecting the disposition from a group of dispositions comprising a first disposition to keep the object, a second disposition to sell the object, a third disposition to donate the object, and a fourth disposition to trash the object. 
     
     
         10 . The network device of  claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise, in response to selecting the second disposition to sell the object, creating a sales listing for the object for addition to a marketplace that sells objects of a type of the object. 
     
     
         11 . The network device of  claim 8 , wherein the monitoring comprises determining a physical condition of the object, and the estimating the monetary value comprises estimating the monetary value based on the physical condition of the object. 
     
     
         12 . The network device of  claim 8 , wherein the monitoring comprises determining a first attribute of the object that is associated with a second attribute of the user, and the estimating of the sentimental value comprises estimating the sentimental value based on the first attribute and the second attribute. 
     
     
         13 . The network device of  claim 8 , wherein the monitoring comprises determining an amount of time of utilization of the object, and the estimating of the practical value comprises estimating the practical value based on the amount of time of utilization of the object. 
     
     
         14 . The network device of  claim 8 , further comprising sending the recommendation to a mobile device associated with the user. 
     
     
         15 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution, cause network equipment comprising a processor to perform operations, comprising:
 monitoring, via a sensor, an object in an environment associated with a user;   estimating, based on the monitoring, a monetary value of the object, a sentimental value of the object, and a practical value of the object; and   sending, to a user equipment associated with the user, a recommendation for a disposition of the object based on the monetary value, the sentimental value, and the practical value.   
     
     
         16 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of  claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise selecting the disposition from a group of dispositions comprising keep the object, sell the object, donate the object, and place the object in a garbage location. 
     
     
         17 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of  claim 16 , wherein the operations further comprise, in response to selecting the disposition of sell the object, generating a sales listing for the object in a marketplace. 
     
     
         18 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of  claim 15 , wherein the monitoring comprises determining an amount of degradation from an original condition of the object, and the estimating the monetary value comprises estimating the monetary value based on the amount of degradation from the original condition of the object. 
     
     
         19 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of  claim 15 , wherein the monitoring comprises determining a first attribute of the object that is correlated with a second attribute of the user, and the estimating of the sentimental value comprises estimating the sentimental value based on the first attribute and the second attribute. 
     
     
         20 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of  claim 15 , wherein the monitoring comprises determining a frequency of utilization of the object, and the estimating of the practical value comprises estimating the practical value based on the frequency of utilization of the object.
