Programmable Medication Reminder System
It’s Very Important for
Patients Who Must Have Their Medication Permanently and time to time but Sometimes
They forget and Need To Be Reminded It also takes into consideration the
disabled or aged people that may have problems to remind themselves of the time
and the medicine to be taken.
Here
we are introducing programmable medication reminder system which has An
Ability to Remind People about Dose Time with a buzzer sound but also displays
the name of the medicine to be taken at that time. The patient can store the
respective time of the particular medicine through a matrix keypad and RTC used
maintains an accurate time as it is supported by a crystal.
Block diagram:
The 8051
microcontroller used in this project.By using the keypad, the prescribed
timings can be entered, at which the patients have to take medicine. This
information is then saved to the microcontroller’s EEPROM, so configuration
only needs to be performed once, even if the device is unplugged temporarily.
Based on an RTC (Real
Time Clock) interfaced to the microcontroller, the programmed time for medicine
is displayed on the LCD and sound a buzzer to alert the patient about taking
the appropriate medicine.
