Abstract
Since the population of the world is ageing rapidly, how to provide appropriate healthcare to the elderly and disabled people becomes an important issue and draws high attention from medical, academic and industrial fields of the society. This smart and safe medication box based on IoT, aims to offer assistance about medicine taking with the support of smart devices as medicine cabinet and android applications. This medication box is targeted on users who regularly take drugs or vitamin supplements or nurses who take care of the older or patients. The medicine box is programmable that allows nurses or users to specify the pill quantity to take and the serve time for each day. The smart medicine box contains six separate sub-boxes which helps to organize six different pills, provides timely remainders for the patient or caretaker in an android application like hand-held devices like smartphone. This smart medication box contains bio-sensor for monitoring of temperature and heartbeat and also maintains temperature by means of adaptive cooling method. Overdosage and improper intake of medicines may lead to serious issues in health of elderly people to avoid mis-usage of medicines a simple authentication process either by the care taker or the patient himself is performed. The proposed medication is much safer and secure as it clearly intimates about time, dosage, stock of medicine and sorts out different pills in correct sub boxes during the next fill by caretaker.
