I had some noisy goats who were making life miserable. My solution? Build a sophisticated system that can automate their food and water, plus control irrigation and provide video monitoring. In this video, I go through each part of the project, from setting up a WIFI enabled ESP8266 module in Arduino, to designing and building a largely 3D printed pet feeder and self cleaning water system. Everything is open source, so please follow the links below to use whatever is valuable to you.
