Smart Pen Helps Diabetics

Many patients don’t take their medication on time, or over-medicate because they don’t remember when they had some for the last time. This intelligent cap helps diabetic patients to take insulin at the right time by using a simple color code.

Green: Should take the medication
Red: Don’t take it yet

Each time the cap is removed, it is considered that an injection was done and the cap will remember that no further medication should be injected for some pre-determined time. Bang & Olufsen, better known for their Hi-Fi equipment, designed this system.
