Baseline Objectives • Design and implement a mixed drink/single shot vending machine that will: • Accept bills as payment for drinks • Provide a drink menu according to availability of liquor / mixers • Pour specific drink when ordered • Keep track of alcohol and mixers remaining in machine. • Self cleaning ability
Purpose • Can be used at parties to pour drinks for guest, eliminating the need for a bartender. • Can be used at bars and sporting events to help relieve lines.
Description • L.U.S.H will be a rectangular box with six alcohol/mixer receptacles on top • It will have a bill acceptor, LCD screen, and numeric key pad on the front side • There will also be a cup holder with a nozzle centered up top
Outline of Approach User Interface(Screen, Bill Acceptor) EEPROM Motorola 68000 Microprocessor Non-Volatile RAM Electronically Controllable Valves (solenoids)
User Interface • LCD screen to view drink availability and selections • Numeric key pad to scroll through options and enter pin numbers • Bill acceptor to pay for drinks
Software • Drink Database • Liquor/Mixer Availability • Liquor/Mixer Type with Valve Address • Payment Verifier
Valves • Use a series of solenoid valves to control the flow of liquid • Solenoids will be controlled by micro controller
Two Solenoid System • Attached to the bottle is a 1 oz tubing • Each end will have a solenoid • Closing the bottom solenoid and opening the top one will fill the 1oz tube • Closing the top one and opening the bottom will dispense the 1oz liquid Top Valve 1 oz Tubing Bottom Valve
Bill Acceptor • Accepts one dollar bills to credit towards drinks • Sends signal to microprocessor
Division of Labor • Programming: Andrew, Heather, and Mike • Construction: Taymoor and Pezh • Testing: Taymoor, Heather, and Pezh • User Manual: Andrew and Mike
Risks • Placing a bottle in the wrong receptacle • Valves will allow variable volumes due to changing pressure in the bottle • Severe hangover
Contingencies • Use variables for the bottle location in the software that can be updated according to content • Replace valves with pumps • Chaser pill dispenser
