We have begun working on our first iOT project – an internet-enabled Raspberry Pi pet feeder! This feeder will allow the user to send a message via email or SMS text to the feeder, which will then respond by feeding the pet and sending back a message confirmation.
Some of the equipment we’re using include:
- Raspberry Pi 2 Model B
- Breakout board. cobbler and cable for Raspberry Pi
- 16×2 backlit LCD
- 12V high torque DC motor
- Zevro WM100 Cereal Dispenser
- Wireless dongle for Raspberry Pi
