The Inebriation Station is an innovative project introducing an automated beer dispenser that eliminates the need for bartenders, reducing waiting times in bars. Users pre-pay and enjoy drinks until their funds deplete, identified via RFID in their cup. The dispenser connects with a database to manage payments and accurately fill cups. Success criteria include RFID user identification, beverage selection input, cup filling customization, user display, and database communication for data retrieval.

About Our Project • Automated beer dispenser to remove the need for bartenders (and lines!) • Users pre-pay and are allowed to get drinks until their money runs out. • The user is identified by an RFID in his cup, and he chooses a beer and amount. • The dispenser communicates with a database to ensure sufficient funds and charges the user. • The dispenser fills the cup to the specified level.
Project Specific Success Criteria • The ability to use an RFID to identify a user. • The ability to receive user input about beverage selection & drink size. • The ability to fill a cup to a user-specified amount. • The ability to display user information (name, account funds, drinks purchased) and device statistics (fill level, temperature). • The ability to communicate with a database to retrieve and manipulate user data.
