System and method for multi-modal dosing device

A multi-modal product dosing system with cross-modality tracking and lockout, characterized by one of a plurality of different product cartridges externally coupled to a control base, at least two product cartridges having different methods of delivery, the control base comprising:

• a housing at least partially enclosing:
• a cartridge receiver structured and arranged to temporarily engage one of the plurality of different product cartridges;
• a cartridge reader structured and arranged to read identification information from the engaged product cartridge;
• a wireless transceiver structured and arranged for wireless communication with at least one remote computing device;
• at least one lockout deactivator structured and arranged to prevent dispensing of product from the product cartridge even when the cartridge is coupled to the cartridge receiver and receives power, unless the lockout deactivator of the control base actively disengages a lockout mechanism of the product cartridge;
• and
• a controller structured and arranged to:
• receive the cartridge identification information from the cartridge reader;
• control the lockout deactivator of the control base to disengage the at least one lockout mechanism of the engaged product cartridge;
• detect a dosing event;
• and
• communicate, by the wireless transceiver, the cartridge identification information and each detected dosing event to the at least one remote computing device;
• wherein each of the plurality of different product cartridges has a method of delivery for the product selected from the group consisting of:
• vapor, spray, gel, ointment, tablet, strip and injection;
• the control base preventing activation of any other product cartridge following a completed administration until authorized.

A multi-modal product dosing system with cross-modality tracking and lockout, comprising:

• a control base having:
• a product cartridge interface configured to temporarily receive and operatively couple to one of a plurality of product cartridges, at least two product cartridges having a different method of delivery;
• a controller;
• a wireless transceiver for communication with a remote database;
• and
• a lockout deactivator,
• one of a plurality of different product cartridges, each comprising:
• a reservoir containing a product having at least one constituent;
• a delivery mechanism structured and arranged to dispense the product directly from the product cartridge upon activation by the controller;
• a physical lockout mechanism preventing product dispensation even when the product cartridge is coupled to the control base and receives power, unless the lockout mechanism is actively disengaged by the lockout deactivator of the control base;
• a unique identifier associated with the product cartridge and its product;
• wherein the product cartridge, when operatively coupled to the control base, remains at least partially external to the control base;
• and
• wherein the system is configured to:
• record dosing events from each product cartridge;
• exchange dosing information with the remote database;
• and
• prevent activation of any other product cartridge following a completed administration until authorized.
