I built a Raspberry Pi webcam to train my dog (using Claude)

Hey HN! I’m a Product Manager and made a DIY doggy cam (using Claude and a Raspberry Pi) to help train my dog with separation anxiety. I wrote up a blog post sharing my experience building this project with AI.

What it does

🐕‍🦺 A doggy cam built with Raspberry Pi, Python, and Claude - harshibar/yogi-cam

I built a doggy cam (using Claude and Raspberry Pi) to train my dog with separation anxiety. Before, he’d bark after being left alone for 3 seconds. Now, he can go 30+ minutes without barking! I’m Harshita. I’m a Senior Product Manager at Grammarly. And yes — I use em dashes when I write. This is my dog Yogi. I adopted him 6 years ago, and we’ve lived in 3 states (TX, NY, and NJ) and walked over 2,800 miles together. By age three, Yogi had lived in four different homes. As a result, he developed separation anxiety — he’d bark incessantly (every 5-10 seconds) if I left him alone. This year, I hired a trainer to help with Yogi’s separation anxiety.

    Pi-card is an AI powered voice assistant running locally on a Raspberry Pi. It is capable of doing anything a standard LLM (like ChatGPT) can do in a conversational setting. In addition, if there is a camera equipped, you can also ask Pi-card to take a photo, describe what it sees, and then ask questions about that. It uses distributed models so latency is something I'm working on, but I am curious on where this could go, if anywhere. Very much a WIP. Feedback welcome :-)
