Elderly people often suffer from chronic diseases and need long-term medication. However, it is difficult for the elderly to take medicines on time and in doses due to deterioration of their physical functions.

It realizes the five basic functions of medicine addition, temporary storage and sealing, medicine absorption, automatic medicine dispensing, and timing reminder and Additional features such as data sharing.
