Could not imagine if your watch can inform treatment need to be consumed to the wearer. This is becoming one of the things that developed Google.

Alphabet subsidiary has filed a patent for a smartwatch. Reportedly, this wearable device can remind you to take medicine.

As quoted from Venture Beat, last week, this device can also display notifications to other devices via short messages or email reminders.

Two Google employees based in Israel, Asaph Zomet and Michael Shynar, was the first to patent the product in July 2014, which was subsequently published by the institute in the United States patent (US Patent and Trademark Office / USPTO) on Thursday.

The development itself is shaded by a subsidiary of the Alphabet, which is engaged in the field of biology, namely Verily. In this case, the company Google has created a mechanism that smartwatch can provide information about treatment.

This device has one or more sensors, which can find out when the person is eating. It is known from the data record user activity related to a substance or food consumed.

Such data may include the user's hand movements while eating. For example, scooping the soup can be detected the device, and other movements can trigger a notification.

Blood sugar levels, your voice while eating, GPS location coordinates of the user, including the user's face image can be a notification signal to the device.

Of course, this patent does not indicate that the smartwatch will be available soon on the market. However, this proves that the two employees at Google were thinking of how technology can be implemented for the treatment of the body.

In November last year, the USPTO has issued patents Google that contains the details of the surgical system capable of removing biological tissue through laser.
