| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 工程科學系碩博士班 === 98 === With the growing population of the elderly people, the number of the chronic patients is increasing year by year. As a result, there are related researches and products concerned on how to remind people to take medicine. This study intends to provide a medication reminding device which has simple setup procedures. It is designed not only for the common people but also for the elderly people. Furthermore, the device has a feature that it can remind a user to take medicine flexibly based on the behavior and conditions of the user. Based on this characteristic, we hope to improve user’s health and drug safety.
The device can arrange medication schedule automatically because it reads the drug prescription, which eliminates the complexity of time setting for the medicine. In addition by identifying the prescription bags by RFID Tags, the device uses sensors to analyze and infer the user’s behavior to help the user, such as to remind the user to take medicine and to confirm if he/she had taken the medicine. This later feature is especially important for senior citizens.
