Maya - PM - 1 hour- Dog Food Motor Key and Code

For open lab, Timothy and I worked on the dog food project because Nicolas and Angel were absent. We got a replacement piece started for the motor to be able to spin the dispenser, because it wasn't fitting, and then we used Mr. Burnham's motor driver example to double-check the wiring. We tested the motor with his Arduino code, and the steps per revolution matched, so now we have to adjust the code to trigger when we use the website. We were using the raspberry PI's and we had a start on that, but it wasn't really working, so Mr. Burnham suggested we could maybe use the same microcontroller from the light towers from the 8-bit computer project.
