Candy Machine

A robot that dispenses candy

My robot uses a button sensor, two servos, a raspberry pi, a gopigo, and a speaker. It takes the input from the button and depending on that moves the servo so you can take your candy. Once you take your candy, right before it closes, the robot tells you to enjoy your candy. I wanted to make it detect when someone tries to steal from it without pressing the button, but I didn’t have enough time. I put a second servo because without it, the flap would move around and let candy drop everywhere.
