Taking medications on a daily basis is essential for many seniors but can sometimes be difficult to remember, so the conceptual Toaster Medicine Box has been designed as a solution to help make the process easier. The system utilizes a toaster-like unit that will hold bread-shaped pill containers within that can be set up for use several days prior. The unit will then alert the user when it's time to take the medication and pop the bread-inspired case up for easy access to the pills within.
The conceptual Toaster Medicine Box is the design work of Ding Xiong, Liu Shan, Yang Yunyi of Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts and Xu Mengzhen of Fuxi Laboratory of China Resources Sanjiu Medical & Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., and is the winner of the 2020 European Product Design Award in the Design for Society/Design for Elders category.
