Constructing the robot 

Now, to make this robot, we would need a few cardboard cartons. We need to make two parts of it:

• A food dispenser
• A collecting bowl with a force sensor

First, let's see how the dispenser has to be made. You need to follow these steps:

1. Take a medium-sized carton that can carry up to about four and a half pounds of pet food.
2. Then, go ahead and make a small cutout.
3. This cutout should be big enough to dispense food but not so big that a lot of food comes out of it at once.

5. This lid should be slightly bigger than the through-hole itself. 
6. Install the lid over the shaft of the motor.

7. Fix the motor on to the cardboard, as shown in the following ...
