There's a possibility to run all kind of python stuff in the smartphone itself. If you can "root" your smartphone, you can use it almost as a usual computer. Like RPi or so.
10:22 See how she pounces at it and starts doing dog yoga? The turbo mode punch up made her think it was pouncing at her and wanted to play. If you add an intermittent wagging tail and playful panting noises, she would be convinced it's another pup who wants to play.
With the right motion, it could probably just be a thing on a platform that sits in one place and rotates to face her and does dog play body language at her.
I feel like your appearance bellies your skill set. Your understanding of electronics and programming always blows my mind.i know these projects don't happen overnight, but something like this has been on my list for years to entertain my kids (and cats).
Go for it, just grab the Arduino starter kit and you'll see that most of that stuff is actually very easy to get started with even with no prior experience. There are also loads of tutorials on YT, forums and all over the interwebs (as you saw the object detection in here for example). The genius part of these videos is the creativity and how to just get shit done mechanically in such an efficient way. There are "slight" over complications of things but if you dissect them to pieces they are in the end very simple but I wouldn't come up with half of the ways to solve these things. Most things on the channel are so obvious once you see them but the "it's not stupid if it works" simplicity is at times mind blowing.
This was a fun video, great watching the project evolve from super simple to over engineered. You've actually made something useful though. I'm sure with a few tweaks it could send you pictures of your pupper while you're working in the shed.
Aw heck yea danger dropped Thanks for including the whole story, seeing you iterate towards a good solution (then past it) helps mitigate the frustration I feel when attempts don't work out
I thought that maybe something more like the old maze-solving mouses from the 1960s. Some of them really had no electronics as such, just collision switches, that when it hits something, it eithe backs up or turns ninety degress, depending on how its wired up. This might be better as a cat toy, though.
I'd print (or lasercut, or...) a top shell for it and cover it in either faux fur, or rabbit fur (available at craft stores) - she'd probably be more interested in a critter than a robot ;)
Thats amazing, seeing you going from I need to make a dogtoy to I need to learn neural networks was pretty funny and also inspiring, thank you for another great video.
Open cv, tensorflow , py torch, all those good vision ai software always take a bit of learning to get used to. I have done it many times but its fun to see it work in the end. Good job.
I'm just starting out with Arduino I used to just avoid coding and did everything with hardware but my ideas have grown to the point I can't cheat anymore and need to learn to code ..........I'd be happy with your knowledge and understanding of Arduino and coding ......I love your channel and your laid back attitude to stuff which is most probably the reason for your success with your projects ..........I've subscribed and have a Stella day dude
Starting from a racing car, i assume your idea was a bit simpler? I like how you not give up on ideas so easily as myself. I have some many ideas never finished because a slight problem occured.
You're so brilliant to learn all that extra coding! It would be cool if you could make it throw treats or a ball. Also, I thought about subscribing. And I did! A little while ago.
Whatever your day job is, they are not paying you enough. This could easily be a semester long mechatronics project for 5 engineering students to work on, and you did it by yourself in....a week?
If you're anywhere near a major city or university, search for "hacker space" or "maker space." They've become quite common, and are populated with the exact kind of people you're looking for!
well, an indoor drone with protected fans.... maybe a hatch that drop (dry) dog food as a treat, and i bet she will follow it with intrest. i dont know if its possible to have it outside, if its possible to limit it´s range so it stay within your property kind of... im just as crazy as you, but i think a flying thingy might be quite fun.
They make lawn mower robots, and I've heard of Roombas rolling out of first floor apartments and never coming home, so I think outdoor operation is probably doable (at least in dry weather)
i thought when you first tried it out with the ultrasonic sensors, stella was barking because she could hear them (or at least an undertone or something, i'm not sure what frequencies they usually run at)
Dogs hear to about 45khz, so make sure the ultrasound is higher than the dog can hear, even if you can't hear it. My dog can hear my ultrasound cleaner & doesn't like it…
Briliant show man, but what about a tried and true waggly tail on a thing that smells edible and moves erratically before connecting the thing to SKYNET?
Thank you for the awesome video~ This looked like such a fun project even though it didn't entirely go to plan it was a learning experience and you got to use up scraps Thank you for your hard work, Keep it up~ I hope your having a lovely day, Have a wonderful week, Be safe and Take care out there wherever you are (^=W=^)7
I love autonomous house bots! Is there a vref for the individual motors? Seems like it should be tunable. I’m checking out that opencv tutorial because I tried to figure it out on my own and got lost fast. Great job!
ah.... You should avoid ultrasonic around pets. they can hear it and is super annoyingly loud. Also... this project is unusually over engineered for you.
Thats a lot of moving parts there bud. You could replace all that with one SBC like an RPi, a USB webcam, then use the GPIO header on the RPi and run it all from one python script. You could probably get by with TensorFlow lite as the engine and I recommend YOLOv5s as the model for your object recognition.
