Abstract
A device, method, and computer software product are provided for communicating medicine dosage and intake instructions to a user by labeling a medicine container with a tag containing a unique identifier, associating the unique identifier with an audio file comprising instructions related to medicine usage, and delivering the audio file to a electromagnetic wave-enabled device. The electromagnetic wave-enable device, such as a mobile telephone or PDA, via a service, plays an audio file associated with the unique identifier when the RFID tag is read by said device.
Claims20
A method of communicating medicine dosage and intake instructions to person, comprising:
- a. labeling a medicine container with a tag containing a unique identifier, said tag is identified by electromagnetic waves;
- b. associating said unique identifier with an audio file comprising instructions related to medicine usage;
- and
- c. delivering said audio file to a electromagnetic enabled device;
- wherein a service is initiated to play said audio file when said tag is read by said device.
A network-based computer system for communicating medicine dosage and intake instructions to patient, comprising:
- a. a subsystem for delivering an audio file comprising instructions related to medicine usage via a network to a RFID-enabled device;
- b. a subsystem for associating said audio file with a RFID tag containing a unique identifier;
- and
- c. a subsystem for playing said audio file when said RFID tag is read by said RFID-enabled device.
A computer product comprising:
- a computer storage medium;
- and
- a computer program code mechanism embedded in said computer storage medium for initiating a service that plays an audio file comprising instructions related to medicine usage on a RFID-enabled device when a RFID tag is read by said RFID-enabled device.
An electromagnetic wave enabled wireless device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a computer readable medium comprising instructions that when executed by the processor causes a service to play an audio file comprising instructions related to medicine usage when a tag is read by said wireless device.
An electromagnetic wave-enabled device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a computer readable medium encoded with processor readable instructions that when executed by the processor for initiating a service that plays an audio file comprising instructions related to medicine usage when a RFID tag is read by said electromagnetic wave-enabled device.
