+## Ubabot
|
|

|

|
|
11
|
+Starting in 2017, I did some work for the robot lab of the RWU.
|
|
12
|
+There I got to know cocktail machines and later took part in [drinkrobotics](http://drinkrobotics.de/), where I did some work on our proper, big, cocktail machine Ubabot, [as seen on Hackaday / CCCamp2019](https://web.archive.org/web/20201108013437/https://hackaday.com/2019/08/22/ubabot-mixes-up-50-cocktails-to-quench-cccamp-thirst/).
|
|
13
|
+It originally used relais to power the pumps, but we had a motor driver PCB that we wanted to use instead, [so I wrote a Firmware for it](https://github.com/drinkrobotics/avr_pump_board).
|
|
14
|
+We got an award for this machine at Makerfaire Friedrichshafen, presented it at Makerfaire Hannover, visited the [Verschwörhaus Ulm](https://verschwoerhaus.de/) and various other events over the years.

+## Arduino-Cocktail
|
|
84
|
+
|
|
85
|
+Also in 2017, as part of some experiments regarding dispensing drinks in a cocktail machine using carbon dioxide, I've built my own small Cubalibre machine.
|
|
86
|
+
|
|
87
|
+It is built inside a 12x1l Coke box and powered by a 3S quadcopter LiPo battery.
|
|
88
|
+The liquids are propelled using pressurized Co2 from a Sodastream cartridge with a proper pressure reducer (check eBay).
|
|
89
|
+The dispension is controlled by four solenoid valves, operated using relais.
|
|
90
|
+Custom built 3D printed [bottle cap adapters](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2445858) are used to pressurize coke bottles and take out the liquid.
|
|
91
|
+Everything is controlled by an Arduino, with a small OLED display and three buttons as the user interface.

+The Arduino firmware can be found on [Github](https://github.com/drinkrobotics/Arduino-Cocktail).
|

142
|

|
|
143
|
+This machine has also been presented next to Ubabot at Makerfaires in Friedrichshafen and Hannover.
|
|
144
|
+It was used properly, to actually dispense drinks, at a birthday party.
|
|
145
|
+Unfortunately, I don't have any photos or videos of the machine being in use.
