A medicament delivery system, comprising: a container for storing a medicament prior to use, the container having a first end and a second end; an injection member in fluid communication with the container; an actuation mechanism associated with the container and configured to deliver the medicament from the container through the injection member when the actuation mechanism is activated; and at least one detection element associated with the system; wherein the at least one detection element comprises a contact sensor, wherein an output generated by the at least one detection element is dependent on whether a contact is made between the contact sensor and a patient; at least a first sensing element and a second sensing element, wherein the first sensing element senses a position of the second sensing element, and wherein an output is generated by the first sensing element, and a stopper that interacts with the actuation mechanism to deliver medicament when the actuation mechanism is activated by traversing the container from a first to a second position of the stopper, wherein the second sensing element is associated with the stopper; wherein in a first mode of operation of the system, medicament is delivered through the injection member and in a second mode of operation of the system, medicament is not delivered through the injection member, wherein the mode of operation is dependent on an output from the at least one detection element and the first sensing element, such that when the at least one detection element detects a contact, the system is in the first mode of operation, and when there is no contact with the at least one detection element, and the first sensing element senses the stopper is between the first and second position, the system is in the second mode of operation. a container for storing a medicament prior to use, the container having a first end and a second end; an injection member in fluid communication with the container; an actuation mechanism associated with the container and configured to deliver the medicament from the container through the injection member when the actuation mechanism is activated; and at least one detection element associated with the system; wherein the at least one detection element comprises a contact sensor, wherein an output generated by the at least one detection element is dependent on whether a contact is made between the contact sensor and a patient; at least a first sensing element and a second sensing element, wherein the first sensing element senses a position of the second sensing element, and wherein an output is generated by the first sensing element, and a stopper that interacts with the actuation mechanism to deliver medicament when the actuation mechanism is activated by traversing the container from a first to a second position of the stopper, wherein the second sensing element is associated with the stopper; wherein in a first mode of operation of the system, medicament is delivered through the injection member and in a second mode of operation of the system, medicament is not delivered through the injection member, wherein the mode of operation is dependent on an output from the at least one detection element and the first sensing element, such that when the at least one detection element detects a contact, the system is in the first mode of operation, and when there is no contact with the at least one detection element, and the first sensing element senses the stopper is between the first and second position, the system is in the second mode of operation.
