One of our focal points for the development of Hector 9000 is, to make it as easy as possible to replicate the machine. Thus we
- used of the shelf & easy to source electronic components
- made the mechanical hardware parts mainly by FDM printing (without support)
- host the software on GitHub
- try to make a good documentation
We also made most of the functional parts independent from the structural parts to give a high degree of freedom for an individual case/cabinet design.
During the work on Hector 9000 we had a lot of ideas for additional features and improvements. Here are some of them:
- Ice dispensing unit
- Cocktail Umbrella dispensing unit
- Dispenser for sugar
- GUI based on Qt
- Statistic functions (Best Drink of the Day, ...)
- AI to create new Coctail recipes
Hi, I like that machine and I am definitely going to rebuild it. But I am a little bit lost, where is the link to the S/W on Github? There is just the generic link to Github.
My next question would be about how many cocktails are possible and what are the 12 basic liquids the machine is supporting/requiring?
(I guess that is part of the S/W legend which links to my first question)
thanks in advance and
cheers
Uwe
