This project was the capstone for my Associate Degree in Software Engineering. The objective for the assignment was to "design a product that solves a humanitarian issue using electrical components and a raspberry pi". I decided to design an automated pill container that would rotate it's top little by little after a programmed lapse of time. I always struggled remembering to take my daily vitamins so this container was fun to design at a smaller time interval for ease of demonstration purposes. This class taught me how to design basic electrical circuits, programing circuits with a raspberry pi and python, and thinking critically through a project design from start to finish.
I used Fritzing as my tool to design the electrical schematic
The product diagram describes the basic function of each modular component of the design
The final live diagram to be paired with the drawing and user manual for running the program from the raspberry pi it was written on
