CDEx describes its "wish list" for their imaginary dream machine:
The fourth generation of the ValiMed Validation System significantly raises the bar for patient medication safety and pharmaceutical drug loss prevention. The ValiMed G4 provides cutting edge features and benefits over existing systems available in the market. The G4 identifies the drug, the dose, the diluents, and is the first to feature multi-component compound detection. The G4 will have an enhanced software platform for improved accuracy and reliability, while able to perform non-invasive measures of compounds directly through IV bags, syringes and vials, offering lower risk of contamination with increased workflow. In addition to validating high-risk medications before leaving the clinical or pharmacy environment, the ValiMed G4 will also monitor and discourage the diversion of controlled substances by validating the returned or unused narcotics from patient treatment areas or surgery suites. Other applications for the ValiMed G4 system include counterfeit medication monitoring, regulatory compliance and training of clinical and pharmacy personnel.
THAT WAS WELL OVER TWO YEARS AGO AND STILL...NADA
