  1. Electronic Drink Machine Matt Legg Dan Pizzillo Garth Gillespie Travis Hopkins Mohamed Elmiligui http://www.cs.odu.edu/~thopkins/edm

  2. Problem Statement Lack of bartender accountability allows inconsistent drink creation through carelessness and theft, subsequently causing loss of profit to bar and club owners and loss of customer satisfaction.

  3. The Facts: $10.80 per 1.75L bottle of liquor 39.45 drinks per bottle at 1.500 oz per drink 36.98 drinks per bottle at 1.625 oz per bottle 39.45 drinks – 36.98 drinks = loss of 2.47 drinks per bottle 2.47 drinks * 7 bottles per week = 17.29 drinks per week 17.29 drinks * 52 weeks per year = 899.08 drinks per year $4.00 * 899.08 drinks = $3556.32 per year 3 * $3556.32 = $10,668.96 per year for three bottles per night 4 * $10,668.96 = $42,675.84for four well liquors
