An advancement on this could be to attatch a servo onto the loo roll
and use a sensor / switch to decide when to dispense the roll.
Maybe have a keypad to enter how many sheets to output?
Sadly, my budget will not let me build this, but I posted this as an idea
for anyone else interested.
Sorry, did I post this in the right place, or should I put it somewhere else?
I've had a few other ideas:
toilet roll replacer
automatic shower (with a motion sensor and water valves)
automatic sink (like they already have in some restaurants)
automatic soap dispenser
automatic shampoo dispenser
fan controller like this one: http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1288811423/7 based on humidity from the shower
These are brilliant ideas! Time to automate my home...
