I love to hit my alarm clock's snooze button, but this means that I am often running out the door in the morning so that I am not late for work. Unfortunately, this also means that I sometimes forget my lunch on the kitchen counter! Luckily, technology will make sure that I will never go hungry again! In this episode, we build LunchBot9000, an internet enabled motion sensor built around the Raspberry Pi Zero W, that sends a reminder to my smartwatch via Twitter to remind me to take my lunch!
