Project Idea
Design an IoT-based smart medicine dispenser that automates and remotely controls medication dispensing schedules, ensuring timely and accurate doses with real-time monitoring and notifications via a smartphone app. This system reduces missed medicine intake and improves adherence for patients at home or clinics.
Project Description
The IoT-Based Smart Medicine Dispenser uses a NodeMCU ESP8266 microcontroller to control a servo or motor-driven dispensing mechanism. Users set medication schedules and quantities through an IoT platform like Blynk or a custom app. The system connects over Wi-Fi and sends real-time dispensing status and alerts to the user’s device, ensuring proper medication adherence and reducing human errors.
