Funny video of a boy punching his brother.

Ever wanted to automate your bartending for home parties. This guy has the perfect solution. A computer and a few water bottles and your on your way. The worlds first automatic bar.

“The idea of the automated bar originally came from a website I stumbled across about a year ago. In October of 2003 Steven Avery, Dustin Cooper and Brad Greer of Harvey Mudd College build what they dubbed the “Bar Monkey.” It consisted of 16 reservoirs and pumps and were controlled by a computer and small number pad. The user entered a drink and it would pump out through a series of tubes. The idea was picked up by others and a website was launched at barmonkey.net for people to share ideas about their own bar monkey projects.

In early 2005 I began to gather ideas and draw up designs for my own automated bar project. By the summer I finalized plans and began to construct the bar framing. By the end of the summer the frame was built and I had basic software written to control the pumps from the computer. At the end of August, with the help of my roommate and Dad’s truck I was able to get the bar from my off-campus apartment to my new dorm room at my Boston area college (where the bar currently resides). The next two months were spent finishing the bar and software and getting everything ready.

On November 6, 2005 the automated bar made it’s debut. For the most part everything worked perfectly. Everyone was amazed and impressed that they could pick a drink from a list and have it appear in front of them in about 10 seconds.”
