Aquassist | DIY Automatic Fish Feeder with Companion App | Wemos D1 Mini | Arduino IDE | Coders Cafe

Hey everyone, what's up? Today, we are here with an interesting DIY project, the automatic fish feeder. You might be thinking, what's new in an automatic fish feeder, right? Sit tight; we've got you a surprise.
Apart from the existing automated fish feeders, this has a companion app that can control the fish feeder from anywhere in the world. You can instantly feed the fish or you can set your feeding schedule and change them easily using the scheduler in the companion app.
Now let's have a look into how it's built.

very nice project 👍

Impressive and excellent work 💯

[@harisashraf4255]

Hi, nice project. However when I download 3D STL model of the body there is a circuit board attached to . So, I cannot 3D print it. Is that model (without the circuit board) available anywhere. Thanks!

[@someoneyoudontknow8372]

Omg i bought a shitty fish feeder and all it did is make the food inside soggy and unable to come out because of the water vapour from the tank and now im thinking of doing this looks more useful and i can feed them while im on vacation through the app and its like a cool little project too. Im very impressed by your work looks awesome i feel like if u sold these and make a global app or something you could profit very well and i would definitely buy your product haha😁

Slang is super 👌

[@user-vi1yn3hn6q]

Hi... good work. I have a querry. What is the range of the app. Once scheduled, can it run without the help of the app?

[@CodersCafeTech]

As it is connected to internet there is no limits for the range. And it can run without help of the app after scheduling.

[@user-hk2sk7ub9x]

i need block diagram, circuit diagrams for this system

[@_w6963]

Can you make it so the device controlling it doesnt have to be connected to the local network but be anywhere out of the house?

[@CodersCafeTech]

Sure, we can do that.

Hello! Thank you but let me know how to process if we wanna use the stepper motor in place of the servo motor, please?

[@CodersCafeTech]

The only change required is to write the stepper control function instead of the servo control function in the Arduino Code.

In arduino ide do we put firebase auth OR firebase api which is put in js file

Hello Coders Cafe guys... Thank you sharing such very project to us. Just one small query ,can same code of Wemos D1 used on ESP-12 D1 Mini V2 Board ? as Wemos D1 seems to be out stock on most of websites.

[@CodersCafeTech]

You can use this code with any ESP8266 based boards

[@loveeditzz1818]

How does sg 90 servo rotate continuously?. Isn't it a positional servo? In which the rotation is limited to 180°. I asked because. I used sg90 in a different project and while testing the servo, the code was to rotate 0 to 360 and reverse. But the servo stoped when the code reached 180 mark. ( only rotated between 0 to 180 and 180 to 0) After some digging, i found out the difference between continuous rotation and positional servos and how to program them. But how sg 90 doing 360?

[@CodersCafeTech]

SG 90 also have a continuous variant.

It might be due to some error that's happening in your JS. Check console for any errors.
