Smart Pill Dispenser Design | Medical Device CAD & Product Development
Designed a smart pill dispenser from concept through manufacturing-ready product development, combining industrial design, mechanical engineering, and consumer electronics into a compact, user-friendly medical device. The objective was to create a reliable dispensing system that improves medication adherence while maintaining an intuitive user experience and a clean, modern aesthetic.
The project covered the complete hardware development process, including product concept exploration, ergonomic enclosure design, internal mechanical architecture, pill carousel and dispensing mechanism, electronic component integration, exploded assemblies, engineering documentation, and production-ready CAD models. Every component was developed with Design for Manufacturing (DFM) principles to simplify assembly, optimize part count, and support efficient manufacturing and future prototyping.
The result is a functional, manufacturing-focused product concept that demonstrates expertise in medical device development, precision mechanical design, CAD engineering, and product visualization.

Good product design starts with understanding the user—even when the user can't speak.
Designing a pet product is very different from designing a product for people.
The customer buys the product, but the dog is the one who decides whether it's comfortable.
That changes the entire design approach.
A well-designed harness isn't just a collection of straps and buckles. Every feature serves a purpose.
Pressure distribution
A good harness spreads pulling forces across the chest and shoulders instead of concentrating pressure around the neck. This improves comfort and reduces the risk of injury during walks.
Adjustability
No two dogs have the same body shape. Multiple adjustment points allow the harness to fit different breeds while keeping the product secure and comfortable.
Material selection
The outer fabric needs to resist wear, while the inner padding should remain breathable and soft against the dog's fur. Choosing the right materials directly affects durability and comfort.
Hardware placement
Buckles, D-rings, and handles aren't positioned randomly. Their placement influences leash control, load distribution, and how easily the harness can be put on or removed.
Safety through visibility
Reflective stitching may seem like a small detail, but it improves visibility during early morning or evening walks, making the product safer in low-light conditions.
Industrial design isn't limited to electronics or mechanical products.
Whether it's a wearable medical device, a household appliance, or a pet accessory, the design process always begins with the same question:
Who will use this product, and how can we make their experience better?
The best products don't succeed because they include more features.
They succeed because every feature has a purpose.
