Overview
Internet Enabled Cat Treat Dispenser
Workflow:
- Hopper filled with cat treats
- ESP8266 Subscribes to an MQTT broker
- ESP8266 Receives command to dispense treat
- Hobby Servo Rotates the hopper so that a compartment is over a hole in the acrylic base plate
- Gravity pushes the treats from the hopper compartment through the hole in the base plate
- Cat contemplates existence and the futility of attachment, enjoys treats none the less.
