IoT Enabled Patient Medicine Intake Tracking System-MEDIKIT

Because health and wellbeing are so important to human society, they should be among the first to benefit from emerging technologies like IoT. Dementia affects the elderly and persons with chronic diseases who must take their medications on time and without fail. In light of this, to track patients’ day-to-day activities, several Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) systems are connected to IoT networks. To overcome this, a smart medicine box has been developed for those people, who regularly take medicines and the prescription of their medicine is very long as it is hard to remember. This medicine box contains three sub pill boxes. Caregiver can setup time for these three sub pill boxes. Pill boxes are pre-loaded in the system which patient needs to take at given time which reduces caregiver’s responsibility towards giving the correct and timely consumption of medicines. When time of pill is set, pillbox will remind to take pill at a particular time and the pills required to take at that time comes out to the user to avoid confusion among medicines.
