The Ultimate Pour Master is a robot that consists of two distinct four-bar mechanisms powered by one motor and is used to pour a bottled drink into a glass.
This project was completed for the Fall 2016 session of the course, Robot Mechanism Design, taught by Dr. Ashish Deshpande.
Group members for the Ultimate Pour Master are Kevin Kuney, Eley Ng, and Nitish Sharma.
