The girls from Surbiton High School were deserved winners in Key Stage 5 of the Siemens Next Big Thing Challenge.
On Tuesday 11th June, Team Forget-Me-Not presented their idea for a ‘smart’ pill dispenser for patients suffering from dementia to the judges at The Crystal, the world’s first centre dedicated to promoting urban sustainability, in London’s docklands. The dispenser contains load cells, to sense if a pill has or has not been removed, and a SIM card, to inform relatives or carers if a dose has been missed. The students also visited the exhibition area containing interactives, films and animations as well as having a ride on the cable car to the Millenium Dome and back.
