Smart Dispenser System Using Arduino with Ultrasonic Sensor & LCD Display in Pakistan

# **Smart Dispenser System Using Arduino with Ultrasonic Sensor & LCD Display**

**Description**

This **Arduino-Based Smart Dispenser** is an automated dispensing system that detects hand proximity using an **ultrasonic sensor (HC-SR04)** and dispenses liquid, sanitizer, or any other material via a pump. The system includes a **16×2 LCD display** for real-time feedback and runs on a **battery backup** for portability. Ideal for **touchless sanitizer dispensers, automated soap dispensers, or smart liquid management**, this project is perfect for **home, office, or public hygiene applications**.

**Key Features:**

 **Touchless Operation** – Ultrasonic sensor detects hand movement
 **LCD Display** – Shows status (e.g., “Place Hand,” “Dispensing”)
 **Battery-Powered** – Portable with rechargeable battery support
 **Adjustable Dispensing Time** – Control pump duration via code
 **Low-Cost & Easy to Build** – Great for beginners & IoT projects
