Just dispenses (fish) food using a 3D-printed (archimedian) two flute scew. It uses a modified servo motor to drive the scew, such that it no longer has angle limits. A secondary servo is installed to open a lid of the fish tank, as well as a vibration motor to make the dispenses more consistent. An additional relay can be installed to control some form of lighting.

It is intend to be used stand-alone, but because it is written using the esphome project, it can easily be integrated in the rest of your home-automation.

Source code and (updated) design files are available in the repo.
