Raspberry Pi Dog Treat Machine with webcam! #piday #raspberrypi @Raspberry_Pi
Here’s a great email activated dog treat machine project shared with us yesterday by John at NYC CNC.
He says:
I just finished my first official Raspberry Pi project: the Raspberry Pi Dog Treat Machine! Your tutorials were a HUGE factor in helping learn how to do this project!
And here are details from his video post:
How do you combine physical computing, metal fabrication and Vizsla’s? WIth an automatic dog treat machine! A RaspberryPi based machine that uses a DC gearmotor, servo, LCD and webcam to dispense dog treats! A python script monitors Judd’s email address ([email protected]). When you email Judd, he’ll get treats! In return, the Python script tells the Raspberry Pi to take a picture which Python then emails back to you as a thank you!

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
