David Rose, the man behind Glowcaps, is brilliant at meshing together everyday products with technology in a seemless design and execution. He is also the founder of Ambient Devices(checkout the umbrella).

The newest company, Vitality, has launched it's first product Glowcaps. There are GlowCaps Solo and GlowCaps Connect.

Glowcaps Solo is the basic version which is a cap for you medicine bottle that will blink and play a chime when you are supposed to take you medication. I can see this being very handy. Available on Amazon Now for $30.

The other product is Glowcaps Connect which is the more advanced product that connects the patient, doctor, phone and family to the pill cap. Probably best to watch the video to understand it capabilities (kinda cheesy but effective).

This is surely the future in connecting the medical world, technology and the patient.
