Gold 2 Candy Dispenser


Today, we were able to finish the design of our candy dispensing robot. The ultrasonic sensor is able to recognize the bowl and the candy dispenses, but it sometimes gets jammed in the water bottle. To fix this problem, we tried attaching another motor to the side of the robot that hits the bottle with a Lego piece whenever it gets jammed. This didn't  exactly work, so we are now still trying to find a way to pass the candy  pieces through the bottle without getting jammed. If we find out how to do this, all we will need to do is test with the conveyor.
