Building a Robotic Bartender - Part 5: Shift Registers and Initial Wiring

submitted by hackerhouse on 03/18/17 1

Get updates and a parts list for this project on our hackaday.io page: hackaday.io/project/12260-robotic-bartender-v2 Our goal is to automate domestic bartending. The problems we are tying to solve are spilled beverages, poorly mixed drinks, and mixing speed at a social gathering. The automated bartender is not meant to replace human bartenders; rather, it is designed to enhance the mixology experience. We've built an Arduino + Raspberry Pi powered robotic bartender before, but it mixed drinks too slow to be practical. We want to build a new (circular) version which is faster, more accurate, and can mix more than one drink at a time. In this series, we plan to show you how to build all the components so that you can make your own. Here are some other linear bartenders that we hope to improve upon: The Inebriator: youtu.be/hJIkJ9x0-JQ Drinkmotizer: youtu.be/B87Y0zwaywI In this video, we mount some more components, show you how our electronics are going to be connected, and explain why we need shift registers. We also step through some test code to explain how to program shift registers. We want help from the community while working on this project. If you have an idea for features to add, or an improvement on design, post a comment and we'll try to incorporate it.
