INTRODUCTION
This project is design a smart feeding
machine that will enable automatic feeding
for animals without human observation.
Project also has been incorporated with
Programmable Logic Controller for flexible
adjustment of feeding sequence and time.

OBJECTIVE
1. The main objective of this project is to create an
automatic feeding machine.
2. This automatic feeding machine will enable users to
set the timer to feed their pet.
3. This project is also aimed to produce a low cost
feeding machine for pet industry

SCOPE
The scope of this project includes
Automated feeding system for medium scaled pet
rearing industry
Programmable Logic Controller based feeding
system
