1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a housing, a distal end surface of the housing defining an opening;
a medicament container disposed within the housing;
a delivery mechanism configured to produce a force to convey a medicament from the medicament container via the opening; and
an electronic circuit system including a light output device and a sensor, the sensor configured to produce a signal when the distal end surface is in contact with a body, the electronic circuit system configured to produce a visual output via the light output device in response to the signal produced by the sensor.

11. An apparatus, comprising:
-
a housing having a contact member disposed at a distal end portion of the housing, a distal end surface of the housing defining an opening; a medicament carrier movably disposed within the housing, the medicament carrier configured to be coupled to a medicament container and a needle such that the needle is in fluid communication with the medicament container; a delivery mechanism configured to produce a force to move the medicament carrier within the housing such that a portion of the needle is disposed outside of the housing via the opening; an actuator configured to be manipulated by a user to actuate the delivery mechanism; and an electronic circuit system including a light output device, the electronic circuit system configured to produce a visual output via the light output device to illuminate the actuator in response to a portion of the contact member contacting a body. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
