Inhalation device including substance usage controls
A smoke inhalation apparatus may include a cartridge including a release device configured to release a substance, a controller configured to control the operation of the release device, and a communication device configured to allow a user to change and monitor settings of the smoke inhalation apparatus and/or a state of the smoke inhalation apparatus. The communication device may include a sensor configured to be activated by tapping a predetermined number of times at a minimum frequency.
1. A smoke inhalation apparatus comprising:
a cartridge including a release device configured to release a substance;
a controller configured to control the operation of the release device; and
a communication device configured to allow a user to change and monitor settings of the smoke inhalation apparatus and/or a state of the smoke inhalation apparatus, the communication device including a sensor configured to be activated by tapping a predetermined number of times at a minimum frequency.
2. The smoke inhalation apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the communication device is configured to reprogram the controller to operate according to a modified usage limit different than an initial usage limit.
3. The smoke inhalation apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the sensor is operable to set an amount of the substance to be inhaled.
4. The smoke inhalation apparatus according to the claim 1 , wherein the sensor is configured to be activated by a plurality of taps at a predetermined speed.
5. The smoke inhalation apparatus according to the claim 4 , wherein the plurality of taps are configured to set a desired amount of the substance to release during a predetermined time period.
6. The smoke inhalation apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the sensor is a shock or a sound sensor.
7. The smoke inhalation apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the sensor is a microphone sensor.
8. A method of changing settings of a smoke inhalation apparatus having a cartridge comprising a release device configured to release a substance into a housing, the method comprising:
receiving data from a sensor comprising a speed of taps from a user detected by the sensor; and
modifying the settings of the smoke inhalation apparatus based on the speed of the taps that is detected.
9. The method according to claim 8 , further comprising reprogramming the controller to operate according to a modified usage limit different than an initial usage limit.
10. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the modifying of the settings includes setting an amount of the substance to be inhaled.
11. The method according to the claim 8 , wherein data from the sensor comprises a plurality of taps at a predetermined speed.
12. The method according to the claim 11 , wherein the plurality of taps sets a desired amount of the substance to release during a predetermined time period.
13. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the sensor is a shock or a sound sensor.
14. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the sensor is a microphone sensor.
