Final Project

V.I.D.A.X/ Vision-based Intelligent Dosing Assistant for visually impaired users.

V.I.D.A.X (Vision-based Intelligent Dosing Assistant eXperimental) is an intelligent pill dispensing system designed to support visually impaired users in taking their medication safely and independently.

TYMKA is a modular training system designed to teach electronics through an integrated digital fabrication approach. The structure features a laser-cut acrylic top plate engraved with data flow diagrams and a CNC-machined wooden base using press-fit joints for ergonomic support. This setup eliminates messy wiring by using a vinyl cutter to create conductive copper tracks, allowing students to visually trace how electricity and data travel across the board.

At the heart of the kit is a custom-designed Fab-ESP32 PCB, created in KiCad and milled on a Roland SRM-20 to ensure a professional, "Fab-made" finish. Input and output modules, such as joysticks, buttons, and OLED screens, are housed in specialized 3D-printed enclosures. These modules use magnetic or spring-loaded connectors to snap into place, ensuring secure contact with the conductive vinyl tracks while remaining easy for beginners to swap and explore.

The system is fully interactive, featuring pre-loaded firmware for immediate feedback on the integrated display. To complete the learning experience, the kit connects via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to a custom computer interface developed in Python or JavaScript. This allows users to visualize sensor data and component states in real-time, bridging the gap between physical hardware and digital programming in a robust, student-friendly format.

Gantt Chart Summary:

This Gantt chart outlines the development plan for V.I.D.A.X from January to early July. It organizes the project into sequential phases including research, AI development, prototyping, system integration, digital fabrication, and final testing.

As the weeks progress, each task will be updated to reflect its current status using a color-coded system:

Green: Completed Yellow/Amber: Pending Red: Not Started

This visual system allows clear tracking of progress and ensures that all stages are completed on time, leading to a functional and accessible prototype for Fab Academy.
