Abstract
In recent years, the number of elderly persons who take medicines regularly has been increasing due to population aging. Since they have many risks of incorrect medication such as overdose, we developed an intelligent medicine case for confirming the types and quantities of medicines. In addition, the algorithm of living condition estimation was created in order to confirm medication timings (e.g. take before breakfast), and the algorithm was installed in the medicine case. iMec has devices that speaker and gesture. But, it is difficult to provide contents equivalent. We proposed that we would use an interface robot with the medicine case. We confirmed that two robots are compared, and participants tend to accept robot's directions more by experiments.
