Abstract

The evolution of mobile phone used in telecommunications technology dramatically growth according to creative and innovations. This technology has diversified efforts to improve the quality of human life and one of the applications for the use of mobile phones was as a notification device. In this project, a notification system for medicine kit by using Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) technology is developed which is aimed to help patients comply with their medication schedule. This project includes the designing of a prototype which consist of hardware, software and circuit development. This project used GSM and mobile phones as communication device. The mikrocontroller PIC 16F877A used for controlling the circuit operation. The type of the operation will be programmed into the PIC so that the signal will transmit by GSM to mobile phones via Short Message Service (SMS). Thus, patients will be reminded by a SMS comply their medicine schedule and at the same time an indicator and buzzer on their medicine kit will be activated. If there is no action from the patient after notification sent, another SMS will be sending to their family members again. This system is capable of assisting patient to obey with their medications schedules consistently thus avoiding patients/users suffer from others complications due to improper medication comply. It will help to increase patients/relative awareness to keep healthy lifestyle by using this system.
