Medication Adherence Platform

This project aims to develop a system, consisting of:

                       i) Smart pillbox dispenser;

                       ii) Medication monitoring platform;

               iii) Corresponding data processing application, which facilitates the monitoring of patients by healthcare professionals, family members or caregivers, thus contributing to improved therapeutic adherence, especially among the elderly or those with psychomotor needs. Equipped with advanced sensors that ensure accurate and effective monitoring of medication adherence, and integrating technologies such as AI, this system aims to create an innovative solution that contributes to improving patients’ quality of life.
