Abstract
A packaging assembly includes a case configured to at least partially contain injection devices for delivering a medicament; a light sensor configured to detect light incident on the packaging assembly; and a status indicator configured to generate an output which indicates a status of the packaging assembly conditional on an intensity of light detected by the light sensor exceeding a threshold light intensity.
Claims22
A packaging assembly comprising:
- a case at least partially containing a plurality of injection devices each containing a medicament;
- a light sensor configured to detect light incident on the packaging assembly;
- a status indicator configured to generate an output which indicates a status of the packaging assembly conditional on an intensity of light detected by the light sensor exceeding a threshold light intensity;
- and
- a door open timer configured to be started in response to detecting that an intensity of light detected by the light sensor exceeds a threshold light intensity, wherein the status indicator is configured to generate the output only if the door open timer has not expired.
2 more elements
A method of operating a packaging assembly, comprising:
- receiving a signal from a light sensor representative of an intensity of light incident on the packaging assembly;
- generating an output which indicates a status of the packaging assembly conditional on the intensity of light incident on the packaging assembly exceeding a threshold light intensity;
- and
- starting a door open timer in response to detecting that the intensity of light incident on the packaging assembly exceeds the threshold light intensity,
- wherein generating the output comprises generating the output only if the door open timer has not expired.
