A robotic car is a car with artificial intelligence and the ability to drive itself without any human interaction most especially during the time of COVID-19. The basic operation was achieved using some Arduino components such as solderless breadboard, motor driver module, jumper wires, motor chassis, four tires, Arduino Uno and Arduino IDE, etc built with a microcontroller (ATMEGA328P). This work describes the development from scratch of a complete autonomous robotic car for pharmaceutical purposes. The outcome suggests that the car helps in pharmacies for delivering of pharmaceutical product such as drugs, assists human in a variety of ways in the pharmaceutical product delivery and reduces dispensing errors, leading to efficiencies in dispensary and thereby enhancing pharmaceutical product services.
