Abstract
In some embodiments, a processor-implement method includes receiving a fill completion message including formulation and capsule identifiers from a fill station. The method also includes receiving a registration request including a vaporizer identifier and a compute device or user identifier from a compute device. The registration request is verified, and a registration confirmation message is sent to the compute device. The method also includes receiving a capsule attach event detection message including the capsule identifier, the vaporizer identifier, and at least one of the identifier of the compute device or the identifier of the user. A validity of the capsule attach event detection message is evaluated. If the capsule attach event detection message is valid, an unlock message is sent to the compute device or a vaporizer, and if the capsule attach event detection message is valid, an alert is sent to the compute device or the vaporizer.
