Watchdoggy - Deters my dogs from stealing food when I'm not around.
Made a dog / animal detector that plays deterrent sounds when entering a selected area.
I got so annoyed not being able to leave things on the kitchen counter when leaving the house so I made this lol.
Runs YOLO26n on a Pi 4 Model B at around 2fps, which is plenty for what I'm doing here.
Privacy focused with a firewall that only allows local network traffic apart from updates and training, if turned on.
It also has the ability to self improve if you add a free Modal account. It collects frames, automatically labels what it can, and lets you review the uncertain ones. Every training run gets evaluated against the current model and only replaces it if it's actually better. Pretty neat :)
There's also a dashboard to adjust detection zones, sensitivity, sounds, check what the dogs have been up to, etc.
More info on the GitHub repo tho :) https://github.com/devjerry0/watchdoggy
We also play soothing sounds through the speaker, feels like a spa when we enter the kitchen xD
Anyways if y'all have any feature requests or feedback I'm all ears. Some more pics etc from the actual app: https://github.com/devjerry0/watchdoggy/blob/main/MANUAL.md
