Digital PillBox
After much deliberation, Itook the decision of working on Health.
So, my concept is to develop a digital “PillBox” which will help the elderly people to organize their daily doses ofmedicines according to their prescription. This system aims to enable theworking people to take care of their parents in a better way by helping theirparents to take medicines on time.

How the system works
Opportunity Area
Since most of the people inthe family are working these days , therefore they are unable to provide proper attention to theelderly people at home

Most of the time theelderly people forget to take their medicines on time when they are alone athome

Consumption of medicines at irregular time

Hencethis system aims to enable the working people to take care of their parents in a better way by helping their parents to takemedicines on time

Productbehaviour : Extracting the Pill
When thealarm goes on, the elderly person is reminded that it’s the time to take theprescribed medicine. As he opens the container for the assigned day the alarmgoes off and the medicine comes out of the pocket of the container. He picks upthe medicine. After consuming the medicine the person closes the container.When the container is closed a message is sent to the registered mobile number,informing that the medicine has been consumed.
