Automatic Tea Maker with MATLAB integrated Human Machine Interface

This paper incorporates human-machine interfacing with an automatic tea maker. The interface for controlling the tea maker uses MATLAB to process the commands of the user onto the hardware. The process starts with the user selecting the water levels (Cutting, half cup, full cup) and tea type (green or black), prompting precise pump and motor activity. The system optimizes the tea-making process, ensuring accurate water levels and tea bag dispensing through coiled spring mechanisms. The system, which is powered by an Arduino Uno, connects with MATLAB to provide a unified user interface. The paper describes hardware activation sequences in detail, with an emphasis on efficient pump and motor control. The paper looks into the design, functioning, and prospective contributions to the evolution of smart kitchen appliances that can be controlled using HMI.
