Abstract

Public Distribution System (PDS), also known as Ration Distribution System, is an Indian food security system, established by the Government of India under Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food, and Public Distribution and managed jointly with state governments in India. Major commodities distributed include staple food grains such as wheat, rice, sugar, and kerosene, through a network of ration shops, established in several states across the country. The current Public Distribution System involves corruption and illegal smuggling of goods. This happens because every job in ration shop involves manual work and there are no specific high-tech technologies to automate the job. The proposed system aims at automating the process of the distribution. In this paper, an embedded system is developed where customers will requirement of materials and the system will automatically dispense the selected amount of ration from a container. The main objective of the designed system is the automation of ration shop to provide transparency.
