This android application is used when visually impaired people can’t findcorrect medicines or they don’t have any idea of current timings so that they can take their medicine. In thisapplication, a reminder is set which tells the user when to take the medicines, as voice output. The pictures of themedicine strip held in the hand are captured by the inbuilt camera of the mobile. The image is processed andconsequently text localization and extraction is done by which the name of the medicine is identified. A spotter sectionis also consolidated with this application which checks the prescription which has been already uploaded in the user’smobile, compares with the name of the medicine identified and if the medicine has to be taken at that time, then it tellsthe quantity of medicine to be taken to the user as voice output. On receiving the voice output from the mobile, the userintakes their medicines according to their prescription.
