Secluso is an open-source DIY home security camera system built around the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W. It focuses on privacy by using true end-to-end encryption (E2EE) via Messaging Layer Security (MLS), ensuring that even untrusted relays cannot decrypt video feeds. The system features on-device AI for detecting humans, pets, and vehicles. To enhance security, the core software is written in Rust to prevent memory-related bugs and includes post-quantum encryption to protect data against future threats.
- Raspberry Pi Zero 2W based hardware architecture
- End-to-end encryption using MLS (RFC 9420)
- On-device AI for human, pet, and vehicle detection
- Memory-safe software core written in Rust
- Post-quantum encryption support
- Minimal Yocto-based Secluso OS
- Support for self-hosted relays or official beta services
Like the Kodak Charmera, the OPT100 Neo Film camera makes up for terrible specs with an adorable design. Priced at 5,940 yen, or just shy of $40, the OPT100 is currently only available in Japan. It features a 1-megapixel sensor, microSD card expansion, and a rechargeable battery.
This guide documents the setup of OpenClaw on a Raspberry Pi 5 w/ 8GB RAM and how to give it access to a TFT display, temperature/pressure sensor, USB camera, and NeoPixels. It uses eSpeak text-to-speech and Whisper Small speech-to-text to enable speech based communication with the bot.
Sipeed’s MaixCAM2 is a powerful, open-source AI camera designed for makers, offering significant performance improvements over Raspberry Pi and OpenMV solutions. It features the Axera Tech AX630 AI SoC with up to 12.8 TOPS and supports training-free vision models and vision-language models.
This Python code demonstrates a neural network application on a CircuitPython board, utilizing a camera (OV7670) for image capture, preprocessing, and inference using a digit classifier. It includes image conversion, auto-cropping, and normalization steps.
SnapRoll is a digital camera designed to replicate the effects of 135 film at a 1:1 scale. It's lightweight, features a 1.3-inch display, and comes in a blind box format with unique designs.
This project walks you through building your own Inventory Robot that can automatically identify, organize, and track the components you use in your workspace. After finishing a prototype, placing every part back in the right spot can become time-consuming and difficult. This robot solves that by intelligently sorting and maintaining a clear inventory of your items.
Anfractuosity built a hyperspectral camera, the Waverider, using a miniature USB spectrometer, a stepper-driven x-y stage, and a Raspberry Pi Pico. It scans spectra one pixel at a time, taking nearly 19 hours for a 400x400 image but capturing more than just RGB values per pixel.
Hup is an AI home assistant that watches out for you, offering visual task recognition, reminders, and configuration to your needs. It detects clutter, identifies safety hazards, checks on family members/pets, creates tasks automatically, sends real-time reminders, tracks habits, and integrates with Hup Cameras.
Adafruit showcases the Raspberry Pi cam combined with the MLX90640 IR camera to create a budget fusion thermal camera. Featuring solderless components, this build is also beginner-friendly.
