Programmable Medication Scheduler

Abstract:
The Portable Programmable Medication Scheduler (PPMS) is a modern solution to the century old problem of patient compliance, featuring four medication bins, audio/visual alarms, a graphic LCD, and serial communication with lab view interfacing. The conjunction of Electrical Engineering and the practice of Medicine have grown increasingly significant over the course of the past few decades, producing ever more innovative devices for the benefit of human healthcare. While biometric devices are often showcased in this arena, control devices such as ours are playing an increasingly substantial role as supplementary and autonomous caregivers. Providing a programmable medication scheduler forms an ever-present link between doctor and patient, capable of avoiding many common mishaps related to patient compliance.
