## Description

After completing 2 initial phases of a technology deep dive our final phase is to develop and engineer a working prototype of our smart pourers and smart fridge system\. This phase will be split into two parts\. A; will consist of finalising a proof of concept and B; to procure, test and debug the proof of concepts from part A\. This will end with prototypes of the devices being developed\. For testing purposes, it is proposed that an off-the-shelf control application \(preferably android based\) will be used for testing and verification\. There would be a preference for the supplier to have a background in fluid dynamics and dispensing\. Additional information: This project is part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund \(ERDF\), as part of the Innovation Support for Business \(ISfB\) programme\.
