AUTOMATIC PET FEEDER USING ARDUINO

Abstract

Automated pet feeder is a product that 
would replace manual feeding method which can be set at a 
required feeding amount and feeding time. Innovation of pet 
feeder is used to overcome forgetful of the pet owner to feed 
their pet and to avoid extra spending expenses by leaving 
them at a pet hotel. The objective of this project is to design 
and develop a mechanism for pet feeder. In this project, 
Arduino is used as the micro-controller to control the 
mechanism and to operate the system with a given of set 
time. Finite element analysis is used to analyze the 
maximum stress that the designed mechanism can 
withstand. Furthermore prototype testing on the mechanism 
with experimental and theoretical was conducted, the result 
of the analysis is analyzed . The analysis is providing the 
path to make sure the final concept of the pet feeder is 
reached.
