Smart Pill Dispenser

(This is a work in progress and will get updates)


When I saw my grandparents taking dozens of pills each day I thought that it wasn't better to make a digital reminder for when they needed to take these pills. So that is what this project is all about: a machine that sends reminders to take their pills and also dispenses these pills.

Supplies

In this file you will find every component I have used and two sites where you can buy it and an estimated total cost.

Here you can see the circuit that I have build and used for my project. I've made this with Fritzing and draw.io. I have also attached the fritzing files.

The Housing

This is for now a sketch of the housing we will use for our project. The STL files for these designs are also attached below.

Putting the Circuit in the Housing

Now that we 3D printed our housing we can put th circuit into the box, it should look something like in the picture above.

The Database

The script to make the database you can find in the attached files below, its a script so you need to copy the text, paste it in a query in MySQL, execute it, and you're ready!

The Code

All the code needed you can find on my github: "https://github.com/howest-mct/2023-2024-projectone-mct-KnockaertTibo". In the folder backend you can find the file "app.py", this is the main code you should run.
