1. 3 3 Pill Dispenser The function of the pill dispenser is to ensure that the correct medication is dispensed and then ensure it is taken Thus it needs to keep track of the position of each medication containers and maintain tracking accurately Pill Dispenser Requirements R3 3 1 P1 R3 3 2 P1 R3 3 3 P1 R3 3 4 P1 R3 3 5 P1 R3 3 6 P1 R3 3 7 P2 R3 3 8 P2 Rotate dispenser in both directions Be sufficiently accurate for repeatability Capable of self calibration Calibrate on boot up Safety feature to prevent damage during operation Check if pills have been taken Assign unique identification number to each pill container Keep track of number of remaining pills 3 4 Vacuum Arm Manipulator The VAM is the mechanical device that physically obtains and allocates the medication according to the patient information for each dispensing period This mechanical action is crucial for the operation of the device thus is required to be very accurate as to only pick and place a single pill at a time to guarantee repeatability and user safety Not only are we concerned with the repeatability of the VAM action but also with its ability to manipulate pills or capsules of various shape and sizes We shall design and test vacuums and nozzle shapes to meet our requirements and allow for leakages in our design to maintain continuous pill manipulation capability Figure 4 below displays the proposed design of the VAM 7 P2. We will test the smallest modular portions of the code before integrating into a larger portion and then retest after integrating This way we ensure that each module of the code works individually and as part of the larger program This will also make it easier to debug the software when doing the final integration since we will know for sure that each individual component is functional We will test the reliability of the code by feeding in bad data to ensure our software is able to handle errors We will also test with data that ensures we cover all possible corner cases Further details of each software categories are given below 15 Page Functional Specification for PillPal 7 System Test Plan Each button goes to the correct menu Correct wireless signal information is given Correct time is displayed Correct prescription information is displayed Prescription information is writable when first loading pills and read only after that Calendar views are correctly displayed with correct prescription posted on its respective date Make sure user is not stuck in any menu Correct keyboard functionality Images are stitched correctly 10 Image is correctly converted to text 11 All settings correlate with required functionality OO NAM R WNP Label Reader Rotation of pill bottles Understanding Typical Pill Labels Devise Code to do image stitching Autofocus coding Time Rotation of pill bottle to image capturing Testing Image Stit
