What is the key advantage of using NFC for data reading in the Schreiner Medipharm approach, tailored for direct patient interaction?

Answer

Short-range, direct interaction where the patient holds their phone near the pack

The choice between NFC and RFID is highly dependent on the intended use case, reflecting the technical versatility of the invention. NFC (Near Field Communication) is specifically highlighted as being excellent for situations requiring short-range communication involving direct interaction by the end-user. This means a patient can easily facilitate the upload of consumption logs simply by holding their compatible smartphone or reading device very close to the smart blister pack. This mechanism supports immediate, patient-driven engagement and data retrieval, contrasting with RFID which might be better suited for longer-range passive reading in logistical or clinical environments.
