The main objective of this proposed project is to detect the expiry date for pharmacy and to implement the stock update.

 Description

By using this project, we can know the stock details of the medicines available in the pharmacy. With the help of RFID tag, the RFID reader reads the information of a medicine. Then, RFID reader sends the information to the Micro controller. The microcontroller is used to compare

The main purpose of the E-Assortment Validation Check For Pharmaceuticals project is to detect the expiry date of the medicine and the details of stock in the pharmacy.

TECHNOLOGY

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a silicon chip-based transponder. It will communicate with the micro controller through the radio waves. Radio Frequency Identification technology uses RFID tags as a component in an integrated supply chain solution set that will evolve over the next many years. RFID tag has a chip and that chip holds an electronic product code (EPC) number that points to additional data detailing the contents of the package. The RFID readers will detect the EPC numbers at a distance, without any physical contact or line-of-sight scanning. Middleware can do the initial filtering on data from the readers. Applications are evolving to comply with shipping products to automatically processing transactions based on RFID technology.

In the RFID module, we can store the identification of authorized persons. Whenever we want to perform a task, the authorized person will place the RFID Tag on the RFID Reader. RFID Reader reads the tag and it checks whether the tag is a VALID or INVALID card. If the card belongs to the authorized person (if it is a valid one) then RFID Reader will allow for further operations i.e., it will send the information to the micro controller. The micro controller will read the data. Based on the technology used, the data received from particular reader is compared with pre-stored values. If the received data is equal to the pre-stored data (Authentication Success), the device is accessible or the task can be performed. Else RFID Reader will indicate that the Authentication Failure is occurred and LCD will display the message that the concern person is an authorized person or unauthorized person. If the person is an authorized person he can perform the task as specified in program. If he is an unauthorized person then he can’t perform the task.

BENEFITS

By using this project, we can know the expiry date of medicines and the current stock of medicines in the pharmacy. This project is very useful for the pharmacy and medical store.
