Well, if you check out the April 2009 issue of Popular Science you will find Steve’s Serv O’Beer is the “Build of the Month” in the How 2.0 section of the magazine. There’s a photo of the latest version of the system with a sturdier frame made of Contrux and an ioBridge IO-204 to link the iPhone to a web application to drive a servo. You can read all about on Popular Science and learn how to build your own Servo O’Beer at Instructables.

Here is a video introduction of the Serv O’Beer robot:

Steve also posted the step-by-step instructions on Instructables.com. Steve used the iTurn functionality, the servo board, and the IO-204 module to allow the Internet-connected iPhone pour his beer.

Serv O’Beer is a clever project and it uses Construx which is every one’s favorite. Steve is a true polymath.
