Product/Proposal : Smart Medicine Dispensary (SMD)

Description :

Our project involved prototyping a Smart Medicine Dispensary (SMD) tailored towards solving the accessibility needs of the common man and underprivileged groups. The Smart Medicine Dispensary was inspired by the ready availability of vending machines around neighbourhoods, and the pressing need to tackle the issue of long waiting and travel times to obtain medication from clinics. This is especially pertinent for groups such as the elderly, who are less mobile.

The SMDs will be produced in collaboration with partner agencies such as healthcare groups, government bodies and other stakeholders. For scaling, widespread implementation and further collaboration with NGOs will be considered in the long run.
