Abstract
In this paper, an automatic pet feeding machine is built using the 3D Printer machine and an opened source control system to help people with busy activities to be able to feed their pets on time. The machine is built using 3D Printer machine. The control system is built using the NodeMCU ESP8266 platform module and ultrasonic sensors. The controlling device uses a smartphone that is installed blynk application software that has the principle of the Internet of Things. The machine works by opening it’s valve to control the water’s discharge, a servo motor to open the feed container, as well as a timer to regulate the time of feeding. The valve can be set in 4 conditions. There are 10 degrees, 20 degrees, 30 degrees and up to 40 degrees. Then for the feed distance’s display it will provide information about the distance of the feed to the sensor, for a maximum distance of 9 cm in accordance with the distance sensor attached to the roof of the feed container with the sensor attached to the bottom of it. This machine can work continuously and automatically as long as there is an electricity source in the house and the owner holds the control of the blynk application software on their phone. .
Highlights
Abstract⎯ In this paper, an automatic pet feeding machine is built using the 3D Printer machine and an opened source control system to help people with busy activities to be able to feed their pets on time
Equipped with program using sensor and other devices to information and communication technology (ICT) system via wireless networks [1], people can feed their pets even if they are outside their house
The overall design of automated pet feeder and how is it work will be explain in Figure 3 and Figure 4. Second step from this process, setup the CAD drawing into 3D printer software
Summary
Abstract⎯ In this paper, an automatic pet feeding machine is built using the 3D Printer machine and an opened source control system to help people with busy activities to be able to feed their pets on time. Keywords⎯ Pets, Automatic, 3D printer, Control system, Software, Internet of things Sometimes they forget to feed their pets, or even just dont have much time preparing the feed. Equipped with program using sensor and other devices to information and communication technology (ICT) system via wireless networks [1], people can feed their pets even if they are outside their house. There was some previous research about automatic feeding machine for pet such as smart dog feeder using wireless communication [3] or smart pet care system [4].
