The document describes an automatic pill dispenser designed by Group #7. It aims to help patients easily take the correct number of pills each day by automatically counting and dispensing medications. Key features include a programmable system to distribute the right number of pills per day, accurate dispensing to prevent overdosing, and a compact design for both home and facility use. The group's solution involves creating components like an Arduino circuit, assembling a full-scale model, and testing to ensure proper functioning.

2. MOTIVATION
 In today’s society, many people require
multiple prescription medication each day,
especially seniors

3. PROBLEM
 Difficult to keep track pills taken, as well as
how many.
 Difficult for patients with diseases, such as
Arthritis and Parkinson's to open and close
multiple child-safe prescription bottles.

4. OUR SOLUTION
 Design a system which automatically counts
and dispenses the correct number of pills with
minimal error
 To make taking daily medications simple and
efficient
 To provide a way for patients to keep track of
daily pill intake to prevent under or over
dosage

5. KEY FEATURES
 Programmable system to distribute correct
number of pills for different days of the week
 Accurate dispensing to reduce risk of over-
medication and overdose
 Ideal for Alzheimer's patients and victims of
other memory altering diseases
 Small in size so it can be implemented in both
commercial and residential settings

6. DESIGN
 Simple and easy to use program and interface
 Compact design so it can be implemented for
both residential and commercial use
 Quick dispensing mechanism
 Capable of handling a variety of pills and
capsule sizes
 Secure in order to prevent being tampered
with
