## Article

**Purpose**
Sometimes, I can't remember if I took the medicine, or I forget to take it at the desired time.

Vitamins and blood pressure pills, have to take every day, but sometimes you forget and don't take them.

Based on C language, It is a system that allows you to set the desired time and check whether you are taking the medicine.

**Design**

I was thinking about how to manage my morning, lunch, and dinner medications.

We needed at least three containers, and we needed a way for each container to be identified by an alarm or indicator light.

Especially, I planned to implement the function by controlling GPIO using wizfi360-pico.

**LED & Push Button**

By using the LED and button, you can store various medications and check whether they are taken or not.

It is a simple operation process:

If the LED is on, take your medicine.When you have taken your medicine, press the button to turn off the LED.

For people who take various medications, 3 pairs of LEDs and buttons are configured as a controller.

Azure IoT Hub
Using Azure IoT Hub, LED status can be checked remotely.

Using Azure IoT Hub service, I connected my flask-based personal server. You can check the status of the WizFi360-Pico device anytime, anywhere by connecting to a smartphone through this server.
