1. Camera captures video
2. Neural network recognizes pigeon
3. Watergun turns toward pigeon
4. Spray pigeon with watergun
Components:
* Electric battery-driven water gun (disassembled, orange)
* USB camera
* Orange Pi 5
* 2 servo motors (SG90 or MG90S)
* Resistors and a transistor for turning on the watergun (e.g. IRLZ44N)
It uses an open vocabulary object detection neural network (yolo_world_v2l), so any target can be programmed, not just pigeons. Runs on the Rockchip 3588's Neural Processing Unit.
