 Abstract `

SIMoP Box is a complete solution to make the life of bed lying

patients much easier. SIMoP Box is a Smart multifunctional pill
dispenser which includes over the air real time monitoring of the
patient, voice assistance, Drinking water supply and an air-
cooling facility. The entire assembly is highly mobile and can be
controlled by a RF remote controller using an omnidirectional
wheel. A solar rechargeable or an AC rechargeable battery gives
life to the system. SIMoP Box is an all in one solution for semi –
paralysed patient or those who are confined to bed for their
lifetime or until the medical condition of a patient is cured.

 1.Introduction
• SIMoP Box can be used by a patient lying on the bed to access
the facilities by himself.
• The remote-control facility provides easier access to system.
• Smart pill dispenser will sound an alarm and as the pills fall on
to the dispenser tray at the right time, adequate amount of
water will be filled at the glass.
• As well as additional facilities like Cooling Fan and a camera
included.

 2. Design Methodology
• The entire system look familiar to a medium sized modern day
air coolers , with the exception of the air vents.

• The operation of the system can be divided into the following

• Pill dispenser
• Cooling system
• Drinking water
• Reminder/Alarming system
• RC Locomotion
• Camera surveillance

 2.7 Applications
• It finds an effective usage in Covid-19 wards.
• It also finds an effective use in quarantine and infectious disease
period.
• All in one solution for semi –paralysed patient healthcare
management.
• It makes the patient self sufficient in their medication.

 3. Results & Conclusions
• After the successful testing, the
system is functioning properly as per
the objectives of the project.
• To improve medication safety among
the elderly, this report proposes a
smart intelligent mobile pillbox or
(SIMoP Box) which makes a patient
lying on the bed will be able to access
the facilities by himself.
