This invention describes a smart inhaler that connects to a mobile app. The inhaler has a mouthpiece, a cover, medicine, and an electronic module with a processor, sensor, and wireless communication. When the user opens the cover, the device powers on and prepares a dose, while also tracking how the user inhales using a pressure sensor to determine if the inhalation was good, fair, or ineffective. The claims specifically narrow the invention to a rescue medicament and limit the number of doses a user can take within a 24-hour period.
Why it matters: The core technologies for smart inhalers were mature by 2024. The primary challenges of miniaturization, power efficiency, and medical device regulation likely persist in the short two-year gap since filing.
