An overview of the digital medicine system (DMS). From left to right: Patient takes medication embedded with an ingestible sensor, which is activated in the stomach. The ingestible sensor is detected by a wearable sensor, which sends its collected information (including additional sensors not depicted) to the patient’s smartphone.
