Just take a video and the app would display and read out what the medication is for, in non-technical terms, using your language.
The medication label can be in almost any languages. No bar codes required. Prescription or non-prescription.
The display and read-out supports English, French, Chinese (Mandarin), Chinese (Cantonese), Spanish, Portugese, German, Vietnamese, Arabic, Persian, Japanese, Korean, Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi, Kannada, Urdu.
It's that simple.
