- electrodes include, without limitation, ear muffs, hats, drinking glasses, eating utensils (chopsticks, knife, spoon, fork), remote control devices entertainment systems (television, stereo, DVD player), portable media players (iPod by Apple, MP3 devices), computer keyboards, computer mouse, tabletop, medicine containers (pill bottles, vitamin bottles, inhalable dosing units), cardboard packaging of the medicine containers, head bands, hair bands, motorcycle helmets, ski helmets, goggles, ski goggles, coffee cups, toothbrushes, canes, walkers, bracelets, belts, suspenders, medic alert bracelets, steering wheel of a vehicle (car, truck), keys, house keys, vehicle (car, truck) keys, musical instruments (keyboards, saxophone), laptop computer, iPad by Apple or other tablet computer, e-book reader (Kindle by Amazon), purse,; purse handles, gloves, mittens, business card holder, thimbles, pulse oximeters, salt
- an image capture device e.g., a digital camera
- the mobile devices that incorporate an image capture device may be used to capture an image of the IEM device, medication, container in which the medication, among others. Once the image is captured it can be used to verify the patient taking the medication, the medication itself, expiration dates on the package, among other information.
- the digitally captured image can be stored, compressed, transmitted over local and wide area networks (such as the Internet), and so on.
- any reference to “one aspect” or “an aspect” means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the aspect is included in at least one aspect.
- appearances of the phrases “in one aspect” or “in an aspect” in various places throughout the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same aspect.
- the particular features, structures or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more aspects.
- Coupled and “connected” along with their derivatives. It should be understood that these terms are not intended as synonyms for each other. For example, some aspects may be described using the term “connected” to indicate that two or more elements are in direct physical or electrical contact with each other. In another example, some aspects may be described using the term “coupled” to indicate that two or more elements are in direct physical or electrical contact. The term “coupled,” however, also may mean that two or more elements are not in direct contact with each other, but yet still co-operate or interact with each other. Notwithstanding the claims, the invention is also defined by the following clauses:
- a mobile device for detecting an electrical signal generated by an ingestible event marker comprising:
- a system for detecting an electrical signal generated by an ingestible event marker comprising:
- the detection arrangement is located in an object, preferably selected from the group consisting essentially of headphones with ear buds, a mobile device, a mobile device cover, eyeglasses, a visor, and a helmet.
- a method of processing an electrical signal generated by an ingestible event marker comprising:
