The invention provides a three-dimensional apparatus for problem solving, learning and presentation for modeling, teaching and illustrating exemplary problem solving or thinking. Some embodiments provide a puzzle-like form. Another preferred embodiment of the present invention provides for the building of a problem or topic or situation specific or custom learning or problem solving or investigatory or presentation aid. Embodiments of the invention may also incorporate or use electronic, digital, electro-mechanical, mechanical, electric or other devices, processors, controllers, or mechanisms, or input or output to or from such or similar elements, and wired or wireless or other networks or interfaces.

The present disclosure discloses an interactive system for teaching sequencing and programming to children. In some embodiments, the interactive system comprises a plurality of tiles organisable to form a structural pattern, wherein each tile comprises an RFID tag storing at least a pre-defined command corresponding to a first action and an identifier associated with a second set of actions, and an interactive robot. In some embodiments, the interactive robot when placed on the tile is configured for, receiving a voice command from a user, reading at least the pre-defined command and the identifier from the RFID tag associated with the tile, comparing the command received from the user and the pre-defined command, and performing one or more actions from among a third set of actions based on a result of comparison.

The present invention relates to a medicament delivery device comprising a housing (60), which housing is arranged to accommodate a medicament container (62); a drive unit (86) operably arranged to act on said medicament container (62) for expelling a dose of medicament; an activation unit (74) operably connected to said drive unit for activating said drive unit (86); said drive unit (86) comprising an actuation element (84) arranged movable inside the housing (60) from an initial position prior to activation, to a displaced position after activation; at least a first NFC-chip (170, 172) comprising specific information arranged on said actuation element; at least one shielding element (174) arranged to said housing, such as to shield said at least first NFC-chip (170, 172) from being read by an NFC-chip reader when said actuation element (84) is either in the initial position or in the displaced position. The present invention also comprises a communication system in which said medicament delivery device is a part.

An object is enclosed but moveable within a container. An interior surface of the container includes two or more distinct areal segments exhibiting corresponding surface characteristics. Movement of the object while in contact with each areal segment results in a corresponding sensory input to a user moving the container. The corresponding surface characteristic of each areal segment differs from the corresponding surface characteristic of at least one other areal segment, so that the corresponding sensory inputs to the user resulting from movement of the object while in contact with those areal segments differ from one another. The corresponding sensory inputs can include auditory inputs, tactile inputs, visual inputs, olfactory inputs, or sensor readouts. The article can be employed in methods wherein a user identifies the object, or characterizes the object or areal segments, based on the sensory inputs.

A screenless smart toy device may be a block made of natural or wooden material and may include a transparent or semi-transparent panel allowing one or more LEDs, from within the smart toy device, to be visible when illuminated. The smart toy device may read RFID values from various objects, such as tiles having objects depicted thereupon and RFID tags embedded within, and play different sounds and/or illuminate its LEDs with different colors based on the RFID tag that was read. The smart toy device may operate in a variety of modes, such as in a play/explore mode, quiz mode, definition mode, etc. The smart toy device may be configured into different modes and/or language settings by use of a mode card or separate application.

A method may include obtaining a multiple known objects and a player construct, comparing the player construct to the known objects, and determining whether the comparison exceeds a matching threshold. If a comparison exceeds the matching threshold, the player construct is assigned to a class associated with one of the known objects, and a meaningfulness measurement can be determined. The meaningfulness measurement may be based on a quantity of player constructs, including the first player construct, a similarity between elements in the class, and a similarity between the class and one or more other classes. The player construct may be created using physical blocks embedded with sensors or electronic blocks.
