Pets can wander. We like it when they wander. We’re charmed by their wandering even as we, sometimes, wish that we could wander as much as our furry friends. That said, sometimes we want to be informed where our pets wander. To that end, Hao on hackster has come up with a project that uses Seeed XIAO ESP32S3 Sense, Raspberry Pi 4, Homeassistant, ESPhome, Mosquitto, and YOLOV8 to create a pet monitoring device. Here’s more!
In this project, I have integrated the Seeed XIAO ESP32S3 Sense into the homeassistant platform via WIFI, turning it into a monitoring module that seamlessly integrates into the home internet system. Additionally, it supports automatic pet recognition beyond its basic monitoring function. We can deploy it in areas where we don’t want our pets to enter, such as the kitchen or an open balcony. When the pet enters the designated area and is captured by the camera, homeassistant can promptly send push notifications to our mobile devices. It can also trigger other actions, such as playing sounds or activating toys, to attract the pet to leave the area.
