The pill dispenser is proof of concept for a much larger idea. This product has the ability to impact millions of people, especially those who are ill and need to be taking regular medication. With further development this product could help dementia patients stay independent for longer. An automated pill dispenser could help eliminate the inconvenience and hassle of taking numerous medication. It is a revolutionary product and nothing competes with it. 

This is not a finished product and cant help anyone at the moment. It needs to be compatible with a wider range of pills. It needs a more robust system for storing and sorting pills. It needs to be more compact, expandable, and reliable. A lot of this work requires refining the design with mass production in mind. Along with the physical design the software needs to be user friendly and simple enough for everyone.
