Arduino-controlled water-supply for my 🐈
This project gives fresh water to my cat when he get's closer to the fountain.
What you'll achieve:
- Small water fountain, like any of this.
- Arduino Uno
- Relay
- Proximity sensor
- Raspberry PI (not needed if you code in C++ right to the Arduino but this project is in NodeJS).
- Connect the relay and proximity sensor to the Arduino and the Arduino to the Raspberry PI.
- Connect the fountain's power cable to the relay and make it sure to aislate this relay, the power will be passing through this thing.
- Install NodeJS to the Raspberry PI and clone this repo; install packages and run
node full.js
. - Try to put everythink inside a plastic box so the water don't damage the components.
- Remember to point the proximity sensor to the fountain so the when the cat comes close the water starts to flow.
That's it.
