Zusammenfassung
Smart packaging solutions may support a patient in the intake of drugs - for instance, through the packages form factor or a linking of the packages physical artifact with digital data and services built upon this data. This article discusses the application potential of a so-called "digital product memory" in this domain. Starting point is a visionary scenario, in which the interplay of intelligent environments and medicine packages equipped with digital product memories allows for unobtrusively supporting a patient in dealing with situations that might affect his or her therapy compliance. In the following, components of a technical infrastructure are described, which are of particular relevance for the envisioned kind of support. This discussion is complemented with a review of prototype implementations of interaction mechanisms taken from the scenario.
