Feedy 3000

I worked with Danyelie Vo, Ethan Emrich, and James Sears to create the Feedy 3000. This project allowed teams to research and conceptualize Arduino project ideas that fulfill a set of criteria. Our team came up with several ideas, including a catapult, shusher robot, and pet feeder. The pet feeder idea was agreed upon by our team and the coach/customer. The pet feeder proposal appealed to us because a large number of students have pets and are away from home all day. When students are unable to feed their pets late in the day, this project would keep pet food fresh and operate itself. We had set the goal of creating a food and water dispensing system for pets. It was requested that the system had some sort of indication to show the food and water levels, and when the food bowl lid was open. Our report is in order of how the project was completed, firstly with the requirements and constraints that were set. Then we went through to the building, testing, and demonstration phases.
