Abstract:
A system for operating a tamper proof storage container for pills, where the storage container has a shutter mechanism that is locked by the combination of a biometric fingerprint lock and digital combination lock. The shutter is opened only upon signal from a personal or remote computer, which allows operation of the fingerprint biometric lock and the digital combination lock. The shutter will dispense only the number of pills prescribed.

Claim (Index 1):
A tamper proof system for dispensing prescription pills, in the manner prescribed, to a patient holding the prescription, the system comprising:\n (a) a closed hollow storage container for pills having a pill dispenser connected to a spring-loaded shutter device that opens the container only upon communication with software on a personal computer; the storage container having a communication means comprising a short range wireless connectivity device to communicate with the personal computer; (b) a personal computer installed with software, the personal computer having a fingerprint biometric lock, a means to input a digital combination lock code, and short range wireless connectivity device to communicate with the storage container; (c) software that regulates the timing and number of pills to be dispensed according to the patient's prescription, wherein the software communicates with the storage container via the short range wireless connectivity device; and (d) a tamper proof feature on the spring loaded shutter device, the feature comprising a cyano-acrylate; wherein the software communicates a prescribed interval and number of pills to be dispensed to the storage container; and wherein upon a signal from the software on the personal computer, the patient activates, in sequence, the fingerprint biometric lock on the personal computer, inputs the digital combination code into the software on the personal computer within the prescribed dispensing window and via a short range wireless signal the personal computer unlocks the shutter button on the storage container allowing only a controlled number of pills to be dispensed to the patient as prescribed after the patient pushes the now unlocked shutter on the storage container device.
