Automatic Chopsticks

These Automatic chopsticks were inspired by William Osman. Chopsticks have never been this easy to use. They accommodate a handle cut off from a plastic fork. Using a Distance Sensor and a Arduino Nano, These chopsticks will automatically close when food is within range and open after it has been eaten. (parts, Wiring and Code in description)
