The prompt

Design a compact automatic pill dispenser in SolidWorks. Create a freestanding circular dispenser with a rotating carousel containing 14 separate pill compartments. The carousel should rotate around a central shaft and align one compartment at a time with a dispensing opening at the bottom. Include: 14 isolated medication compartments Central rotating shaft with bearings Small motor and gear reduction system Indexing/locking mechanism so the carousel stops precisely at each compartment Sliding dispensing gate Chute leading to a removable collection cup Transparent circular front cover with hinge Outer protective housing and stable base Simple LCD display and START button Manual/emergency override Make the design modern, compact, realistic, and manufacturable, using plastic for the housing, transparent plastic for the cover, and metal for the shaft and gears. Create a complete assembly, exploded view, section view, and motion study showing the carousel rotating, locking into position, opening the dispensing gate, and dropping pills into the collection cup.
