What it does
Our product dispenses a pill using a combination of stepper and servo motors. It also contains an ultrasonic sensor to detect whether the pill has been taken or not. This dispensary then communicates with a web application where patients or caregivers can sign in to see whether the pill was taken.
How we built it
We built the hardware portion using servo and stepper motors, an ultrasonic sensor, and an arduino. We built the base using whatever we could steal from around the building. thanks m&t bank
Challenges we ran into
We had trouble setting up the backened using Node.js and establishing communicatino between our javascript and our Arduino code.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
This is our first hackathon, so we are proud to have built both a hardware and software side of the project.
What we learned
We learned a lot of things about node.js, circuitry, and the design process.
What's next for Proactive Prescriptions
We would like to be able to move the web application into an app using android studio to allow for easier use. We would also like to be able to our arduino code with our app so it can update in real time.
