Problem

Let me ask you something...

  Did you ever forget to take pills at the prescribed time?Yes???? 
  OK! we all do forget right??
  You may think having an irregular schedule to take medication is not
  much of a problem. We thought so too. but to be sure, we ask about it
  from a DOCTOR.....

What he said

   It's better to not take medicines rather than having it irregularly
   unprescribed way

We astonished! We asked why?...

  He highlighted the following key issues that could arise because of this,                     

     1. Drug Overdose
     2. Drug Intolerance
     3. Disease gets worse
     4. Might feel withdrawal effects
     5. Can be caused Death

  He also stated,
     Elderly people have high possibility to develop This issues rather than 
     Younger people. So we thought to give a solution for this. But before 
     designing a solution we did a survey and found following issues
     associated with this.

So we design this project to address the most common two issues raised by the people.

1. Being forgetful
2. hard to read prescriptions due to poor vision

Our solution

To address before mentioned issues we designed a Device Which Alerts the patients at the right time to take the pills and Inform Which amount they need to take….

This device is designed with following added features,

  1. Fingerprint Authentication
  2. Medication Tracking
  3. Multiuser facility
  4. Audio & Visual Alerts
  5. Battery backup 
  6. Pill Refill reminder
  7. RFID bracelet Authentication

by this proposed product,

We could solve 92.8% of issues raised by the people.
