Abstract

Now a day’s people are forgetting to take their medicine due to busy in their work or old age peoples can’t remember the medicine timings and dosage of medicine. The healthcare services are using intelligent equipment’s for continuous monitoring of in-house patients. To overcome this situation an intelligent home based medicine box system with wireless connectivity along with an android application is proposed to help patients by getting prescribed medicine in time automatically. In the proposed system, manually one can set the medicine to be taken at different timings through the Android app and it will be transferred to microcontroller through Bluetooth of Technology. The proposed system will have medicine tray and in build real time clock which makes an alarm at the set period and controlling mechanism will open the corresponding boxes. The alarm will be switched off automatically once the medicine is taken from the medicine box. The application software will provide the voice message in case of patient is disabling in their eyes. The same information is conveyed to the duty attendees and predefined guardian for necessary action through the Internet of Things.
