Building a Robotic Bartender - Part 6: Drive Motor and Cupholders

Get updates and a parts list for this project on our hackaday.io page: https://hackaday.io/project/12260-rob... Our goal is to automate domestic bartending. The problems we are tying to solve are spilled beverages, poorly mixed drinks, and mixing speed at a social gathering. The automated bartender is not meant to replace human bartenders; rather, it is designed to enhance the mixology experience. We've built an Arduino + Raspberry Pi powered robotic bartender before, but it mixed drinks too slow to be practical. We want to build a new (circular) version which is faster, more accurate, and can mix more than one drink at a time. In this series, we plan to show you how to build all the components so that you can make your own. Here are some other linear bartenders that we hope to improve upon: The Inebriator:    • The Inebriator - Arduino Cocktail Machine ...   Drinkmotizer:    • Drinkmotizer -- the DIY drink mixing robot...   In this video, we design the mechanism to hold our glasses in place while the drink platform is rotation. We also 3d print quite a few parts for mounting the motor and various other components. Lastly, we do some more wiring to hook up our mixer pumps. We want help from the community while working on this project. If you have an idea for features to add, or an improvement on design, post a comment and we'll try to incorporate it.
