The present invention is directed to systems, apparatuses, computer readable media, and methods implementing a wirelessly-enabled liquid container that can be remotely and dynamically configured to facilitate use-based messaging for a particular consumer of the contents of the liquid container. By way of example, a wirelessly-enabled baby bottle is provided that can be dynamic configured to facilitate use-based educational messaging for a particular child consumer of the contents of the liquid container.

A smart medication identifying system is disclosed herein. It comprises a processing device including a first processing module, a scanning module electrically connected to the first processing module and a first reminding module electrically connected to the first processing module; a cloud storage device electrically connected to the processing device and having a storage module, a login module electrically connected to the storage module, and a medication information database electrically connected to the storage module; and a medication identifying device electrically connected to the processing device and the cloud storage device and having a second processing module, an image identifying module electrically connected to the second processing module and a second reminding module electrically connected to the second processing module.

The invention relates to a smart thermal insulation box, including thermally insulated layers with mitered edges forming a thermally insulated space, and said space surrounded by corrugated material. The box also has externally viewable and operable temperature and humidity sensors, and optionally, a vibration sensor, where the sensors are preferably fixed inside the box to one side. One of the cardboard panels forming the top of the box which overlays the insulation layer has a window configured to overlay the display panel. An audible alert system may also be included to alert users to temperature or humidity excursions.

A programmable pill box assembly includes a pill box that has a plurality of compartments therein for containing pills. A plurality of doors is each hingedly coupled to the pill box. Each of the doors is aligned with a respective one of the compartments for opening and closing the compartments. A sensing unit is coupled to the pill box to sense when each of the doors is opened or closed. A transmission unit is removably coupled to the pill box and the transmission unit transmits an alert signal when the sensing unit senses that a respective one of the doors has not been opened at a predetermined time. A bracelet is worn on a wrist of the user and the bracelet is in wireless communication with the transmission unit. The bracelet vibrates to remind the user to take the pills in one of the compartments in the pill box.

A method and apparatus for monitoring adherence to a dosing-regimen for a medication is presented. Systems in accordance with the present invention automatically monitor the medicine content of a blister card based on the state of its lidding film and compare it to the prescribed dosing regimen for the medicine. In some embodiments, the lidding film is imaged using a tomographic imaging technique, such as electrical resistance tomography or electrical impedance tomography. Alternative sensing approaches are based on optical, acoustic, and tactile sensors that interrogate either the dispensing region at each tablet location or the tablets themselves to determine whether tablets have been dispensed. Automatic monitoring of the blister card enables the user to be: (1) alerted to non-compliance, (2) alerted to a risk of future non-compliance, and/or (3) to be provided remediation instructions when non-compliance is determined.

A computerized pill intake reminder device is disclosed. The computerized pill intake reminder device is used for storing pills, detecting the number of pills in each pouch of the blister pack, inventory management, reminding users to take their medication on time, alerting by providing an audible or a visual alarm if the medications are not taken on time and as a secondary mechanism alerting their caregiver if the user has not responded to the alert and taken the medication on time. The device includes a top housing and a bottom housing that can be rotated about each other to form a closed and sealed module. It also includes a processor that is communicatively coupled through an electronic circuit to a plurality of electronic components housed within the pill intake reminder device. These include a speaker, microphone, infrared sensors, cameras, LED lights, microphone, RFID scanner, non-volatile memory, transmitter, and a receiver. The LED lights can be programmed with various colors. The speaker is used to sound an audible alarm play an audible message at a specific time to remind the user to take their medication or provide an alert if the time has passed. The device also includes a pill storage module that has an upper and a lower packing plate. The space in between the plates is where the blister pack is inserted. The device includes a pill detection module. This module includes an infrared sensor (IR) and a camera. In operation, the processor causes the infrared sensor to detect the presence of a pill inside the pouch of the pill/blister pack and the processor causes the camera to quantify the number of pills in the pouch. The pill detection is performed by using a combination of IR Sensors, photodiodes, and a light emitting mechanism. A light beam, or an array of light beams, are passed from one side of the pouch to another and the light that passes through is read by the IR sensors and used for determining whether the pouch includes pills. The device includes a guidance system to guide the user of the pill intake reminder device to a specific pouch of the pill/blister pack for retrieving pills stored in that pouch. It does so by illuminating a light emitting diode (LED) on or around a specific pouch from which medication/pills are to be retrieved by the user. It operates by obtaining the hours of administration (HOA) schedule for the patient and then locating a pouch of the pill/blister pack that correlates with the HOA schedule. Once located, the pouch is illuminated for guidance. The device includes a display that can be used for providing visual alerts, videos, or recorded messages for instructing the user for taking the pills. The device uses a

Some people need to carry their medicines with them wherever they go. However, people can damage their medicines by leaving them outside in hot or cold weather. Specially designed systems can help increase safety by notifying people if their medicine is left behind or is getting too hot or cold.
