Student project demo (YouTube) showing an automatic pet food and water dispenser system. Presenters describe hardware and software: food and water dispensers with load sensors that stop dispensing when bowls reach a threshold; a Raspberry Pi providing a video feed and network connectivity through a router for remote phone control; two high-torque DC motors for dispensing; two Arduinos (Mega for food, Uno for water); and supporting components (RTC chip, Bluetooth, H-bridge). The clip ends as a presenter begins a phone-triggered demo.

Chapters

Just feed their pets without having to do any of the work. They go out of vacation. This will automatically dispense food. We have here the food dispenser and our water dispenser. And we also have.
Underneath here, we have our two load sensors. And whenever the bowls get to a certain level, the dispensers will stop working.
Also, we have here our Raspberry PI. It provides a video feed so we.
Can see if the bowl is filled or not.
And in order for the Raspberry PI.
To work, we have our router so.
We can communicate with our phone. In the back, we have the Raspberry.
PI that provides a video feed.
We have our two DC motors, high torque, that dispense the food in the water. And we have two Arduino boards, a.
Mega, which controls the food, and the.
Uno, which controls the water.
And it contains the RTC chip, a.
Bluetooth, and H Bridge.
What?
So I'm gonna demo through my phone. I'm ready to dispense food, so I'm gonna add.
I'm just gonna input one, and it should start disp. See, it's pouring water in, and it's going to keep pouring water until it reaches a certain weight.
