Necklace Tracks the Pills You Pop - MagneTrace (GALLERY)

If you or someone you know have a hard time remembering when to take your meds, the MagneTrace necklace is sure to be a great use to many. 

According to Georgia Tech, “The necklace, called MagneTrace, contains an array of magnetic sensors that could be used to detect when specially-designed medication containing a tiny magnet passes through a person’s esophagus. And for persons who may not want to wear a necklace, MagneTrace sensors can be incorporated into a patch attached to the chest.”

I wonder if it also monitors those who abuse meds.

 Researchers now have a possible solution for the one in three adults who fail to take their medicines as prescribed by their doctors, as well as for everyone else who occasionally forgets: a sensor necklace that records the exact time and date when specially-designed pills are swallowed, and reminds the user if any doses are being missed.
