The present disclosure relates to an information transmitter having an electronics circuit, said electronics circuit has a transmitter; an antenna operably connected to said transmitter. Memory storage elements are also included having unique identification data with at least one activation element capable of activating said electronics circuit to transmit said unique identification data to external receivers. The present disclosure also relates to a medicament delivery device utilizing the information transmitter.
1. A medicament delivery device comprising:
a housing configured to receive a medicament container containing a medicament;
a delivery nozzle that is configured to deliver the medicament into a user;
a protective cap that is removably arranged on the housing;
a breakable information tag that comprises an antenna, where the breakable information tag is arranged both on a portion of the housing and on a portion of the protective cap,
wherein the breakable information tag is configured to be broken upon the removal of the protective cap from the housing,
wherein the breakable information tag is configured with first electronic readable information and second electronic readable information, and
wherein the second electronic readable information can only be read by a smart device when the breakable information tag is broken.
2. The medicament delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the first electronic readable information includes information related to the medicament or to the user.
3. The medicament delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second electronic readable information are read by the smart device.
4. The medicament delivery device according to claim 3 , wherein the first and second electronic readable information start an information providing program in the smart device.
5. The medicament delivery device according to claim 1 , where the breakable information tag further comprises an activation element.
6. The medicament delivery device according to claim 5 , where the activation element is triggered when the protective cap is removed from the housing, where the activation element causes energization of a short-range wireless communication device incorporated in the breakable information tag.
7. The medicament delivery device according to claim 1 , where the breakable information tag further comprises a battery that is activated when the protective cap is removed from the housing.
8. The medicament delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the breakable information tag further comprises a temperature sensor.
9. The medicament delivery device according to claim 1 , where the second electronic readable information comprises an NFC-tag.
10. The medicament delivery device according to claim 9 , where the NFC-tag is shielded and non-readable prior to the protective cap being removed.
11. The medicament delivery device according to claim 10 , where breaking the breakable information tag un-shields the NFC-tag such that the smart device can read the NFC-tag.
12. The medicament delivery device according to claim 1 , where the breakable information tag further comprises an NFC circuit, wherein breaking the breakable information tag breaks the NFC circuit, where the break is detected by the NFC circuit and causes the second electronic readable information to be transmitted to the smart device.
13. A system comprises:
a smart device comprising a processor, a storage, a communication system; and
a medicament delivery device comprising:
a housing configured to receive a medicament container containing a medicament;
a delivery nozzle that is configured to deliver the medicament into a user;
a protective cap that is removably arranged on the housing;
a breakable information tag that comprises an antenna and an activation element, where the breakable information tag is arranged both on a portion of the housing and on a portion of the protective cap,
wherein the breakable information tag is configured to be broken upon the removal of the protective cap from the housing,
wherein the breakable information tag is configured with first electronic readable information and second electronic readable information,
wherein the smart device is configured to read the first electronic readable information or the second electronic readable information, and
wherein the activation element is triggered when the protective cap is removed from the housing such that the second electronic readable information can then be read by the smart device.
