Overview

Internet Enabled Cat Treat Dispenser

Workflow:

  1. Hopper filled with cat treats
  2. ESP8266 Subscribes to an MQTT broker
  3. ESP8266 Receives command to dispense treat
  4. Hobby Servo Rotates the hopper so that a compartment is over a hole in the acrylic base plate
  5. Gravity pushes the treats from the hopper compartment through the hole in the base plate
  6. Cat contemplates existence and the futility of attachment, enjoys treats none the less.
