Read full description

The App software provides multiple functions for the MedLocker Camera. A video and photographic record of who opens the MedLocker and also sends a notification to the administrator(s) that the MedLocker has been opened. This protects the MedLocker from theft by providing a record of who opens the Locker. In case of an emergency, the video and photographic record also provides the identity as to who takes the medication out of the MedLocker. The video and photographic records are transmitted over a wifi system. In the case where there is no wifi system available, there is a backup system using an SD memory stick that contains the video and photographic record.
