Embedded systems have received significant attention during the last decade mainly because of their numerous applications. They can be found in robotics, smart buildings, fabrication equipments as well as medical, automation, industrial, commercial, military applications. As we know COVID-19 is an infectious disease is a newly discovered. You may be infected by breathing in the virus if you are with in close proximity of someone who has COVID-19, or by touching a contaminated surface & then your eyes, nose or mouth. So it is very harmful & most of the Corona patients are hospitalized so, it is dangerous for hospital staff. A proposed system is a work like medicine distributor in the hospital. In today's world, people are suffering from several diseases and due to this the need for medication has increased exponentially. An average person takes 2-3 tablets a days and there is a chance for the person to miss the tablets. In order to avoid such mistakes an automated system for dispensing medicines is required. In this proposed system, we present a prototype robotic system that automatically dispenses medicines to the patients in the hospital. The robot model which carries medicines for patients will deliver them at the respective time. The robot uses line follower method to deliver the pills to the patient's room. In this way the medication errors can be prevented and the need for the patient to remember their medicines is not needed anymore.
