Current Market:
No precise measuring, just for one type of food, only for storage
Prototypes:
I tested various measuring mechanisms and measuring cup dimensions/ forms. Created using cardboard, paper, foam core, 3D print, styrene, and plastic
Final Model:
The final model was created using an acrylic tube, thin PVC pipe, styrene, and the 3D printed mechanism.
It is 12 inches tall and has a diameter of 6 inches. It holds 5 pounds which is the average size of a standard flour bag.
It can dispense 1 cup, 1/2 cup, 1/3 cup, and 1/4 cup.
