Beer-launching fridge tosses beer to you 13-feet away

Posted By: Naveen Kumar | Feb 27 2007

Now, this one is meant strictly for the most lethargic fellows who don't even wish to stand up for a beer and want it at the hand. In a do-it-yourself project, a guy named John Cornwell has designed a mini robotic Beer-Launching Fridge that loads up 10 frosty brews in its magazine and then can toss them at you from 13 feet away and the shot is absolutely perfect.

The controls of the system are an ATMega8535 and 3 intelligent H-bridges. It's handled by an adapted key-less entry system. If you don't believe what I have said, you can check out the little machine in the action too. Video after the jump.
