Homemade Breath of the Wild Guardian with Real Sentry Action #ArtTuesday

npentre decided that it wasn’t enough to build a Guardian sentry from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The maker decided to build a Guardian sentry that is a real sentry that can track humans, dogs, and other neighborhood creatures. Here’s more from hackaday:

The build relies on a Raspberry Pi kitted out with its usual camera for machine vision purposes. It uses the Viam robot toolkit, which runs a machine learning model to detect pets and humans on the camera feed. The guardian then tracks any pets or humans that show up by turning its head, and thus the camera, with a servo controlled by a PWM signal via the Raspberry Pi’s GPIO pins. It’s all wrapped up in a nicely-decorated 3D printed model that really does look like something straight out of Breath of the Wild.
