    Fun fact, first webcam was a series of updating stills of an actual coffee pot so some engineers would know if there was coffee made.

        True, but most streaming media now is a bunch of stills with the changes for each individual frame between them.

      With that, plus image recognition, plus a control system, you could use rfc2324 to implement the digital control side

      Though I think I’d use weight, temperature, and flow sensors for easier service implementation

        And then plug those values into a image generation service to give users a visually intuitive way to see if there’s cooffe or not!
