  • Publication number: 20240390595
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electronic system (100) for a drug delivery device (1), in which a first member (20) performs a specific movement relative to a second member (11) during a dosing operation. The electronic system (100) comprises a sensor arrangement (120), which is operable to provide sensor data describing the specific movement and is configured to operate the sensor arrangement (120) during at least one part of the dosing operation to provide sensor data. In order to protect the users from relying on incorrectly measured dose sizes and a need to reduce the risk that an injection is painful for the patient, the electronic system (100) is configured to determine, based on the sensor data, if a speed of the specific movement during the at least one part of the dosing operation breaches a first speed threshold.

  • Publication number: 20240374834
    Abstract: An electronic system for a drug delivery device comprises a dose setting and drive mechanism, which is configured to perform a dose setting operation and a dose delivery operation for delivering a set dose. The electronic system comprises a sensor arrangement for generating measurement data related to a size of the dose set by the dose setting operation and/or delivered by the dose delivery operation, a microcontroller system connected to the sensor arrangement, the microcontroller system comprising at least one microcontroller, and a memory. The microcontroller system operates the sensor arrangement during the dose setting operation and/or during the dose delivery operation and stores a dose record in the memory. For providing data regarding dose delivery operations in an easy, flexible and yet reliable and energy-efficient manner, the microcontroller system is configured to set at least one flag and/or a specific purpose value in the dose record under pre-defined circumstances.

  • Publication number: 20240224043
    Abstract: A server performs a method for automatically provisioning an electronic device installed at an installation location. The server receives (e.g., from a mobile application) information relating to installation of the electronic device at the installation location. The installation information includes at least one image captured at the installation location. The server determines whether location information for the electronic device was received from the electronic device after the device was installed. Responsive to determining that location information for the electronic device was not so received, the server determines whether the at least one image includes geolocation metadata. When the at least one image includes geolocation metadata, the server determines the geolocation of the electronic device based on the geolocation metadata.

  • Publication number: 20240223890
    Abstract: A mobile device, such as a smartphone, tablet computer, or other handheld electronic device, includes a display, a camera, a memory, and a processor. The memory may store operating instructions for the processor. Such operating instructions may be in the form of preinstalled operating system software or firmware, or a downloaded mobile application. The mobile device processor is operable in accordance with the operating instructions to determine whether the mobile device has moved repeatedly (e.g., has been shaken) within a motion detection time period and, if so, activate the camera; present on the display a live image stream captured by the camera; start a timer to count down time for a countdown time period; upon expiration of the countdown time period, automatically control the camera to capture an image from the live image stream; and store an image file including the captured image in the memory.
