Automatic Food Dispenser Code

This document contains an Arduino sketch for an automatic food dispenser using an LCD and a servo motor. It allows users to set a dispensing interval using buttons for hours, minutes, and seconds, and displays a countdown until the next dispensing. The servo moves to dispense food and returns to the closed position after a set duration.
