About

Meditel uses a combination of alarms, a pill organizer, and a water bottle to remind users to take their medications. The device can set up to six alarms per day and is powered by an Arduino board for operation.

How it works

Nikhil Lemos, a 15-year-old from Vadodara, developed Meditel, a mini-robot that helps users remember to take their medications. It includes an alarm system, pill organizer, and water bottle, designed to assist elderly people, particularly his grandparents. The robot automates medication reminders and ensures users have water, addressing medication non-adherence.
