Automatic Medication Dispenser (Prototype), LCD Display, GSM System
This paper presents an automatic medication dispenser (prototype) which help to dispense medicine on time to elderly people. The aim is to avoid irregularities in the dosage and the risk of mishandling. Taking medicines incorrectly can have serious consequences like delayed recovery, illness and even cause death of the person. The dispenser is realized using raspberry pi which help to control the functions of the system. When medication time is arrived a dose of medication is released and an audio alarm is generated. If the patient does not take the dose prescribed by the doctor, an SMS is sent to a phone number using GSM system .The system is a real-world prototype with LCD display, keyboard and fingerprint sensing for user friendly interface and low cost requirements.
