Precision-controlled liquid dispensing system with weight-based feedback and deformable flow regulation components

A precision-controlled liquid dispensing system, the system comprising:

• a base configured to support at least one liquid reservoir;
• a sensing device positioned along a load path between the at least one liquid reservoir and a support surface of the base, the sensing device configured to generate a signal corresponding to an amount of liquid contained in the at least one liquid reservoir;
• a dispensing interface fluidly coupled to the at least one liquid reservoir;
• a plurality of actuators configured to control dispensing of liquid from the at least one liquid reservoir;
• and
• a control unit communicatively connected to the plurality of actuators and the sensing device, wherein the control unit is configured to:
• receive a signal from the sensing device corresponding to the amount of liquid contained in the at least one liquid reservoir;
• and
• control dispensing of the liquid from the at least one liquid reservoir based on the amount of liquid contained in the at least one liquid reservoir.

A method of precision-controlled liquid dispensing with weight-based feedback and deformable flow regulation components, the method comprising:

• receiving, at a control unit, a user input;
• receiving, at the control unit, a weight signal from a weight-measuring device, wherein:
• the weight-measuring device is positioned along a load path between at least one liquid reservoir of a base and a support surface of the base;
• the weight signal corresponds to a weight of liquid contained in the at least one liquid reservoir;
• storing, at the control unit, a value corresponding to a quantity of liquid contained in the at least one liquid reservoir as a function of the weight signal;
• determining, using the control unit, an amount of liquid to dispense as a function of the user input and the stored value;
• and
• dispensing, at a dispensing interface fluidly coupled to the at least one liquid reservoir, the amount of liquid from the at least one liquid reservoir by actuating, using the control unit, at least one actuator of a plurality of actuators.
