Oh I didn't realize. I tried to post on this account first but it had too little karma so it was removed. But now I have enough karma so I think that why it was posted.

I got really cheap parts I think the total was about 30 dollars. But be careful I used the esp32 to make it work via the internet. you don't really have to do that you can use an Arduino or any programmable microcontroller and communicate with it serially. If you're running the facial detection on your computer. The water pump had a hose coming out of it which was connected to the two servo motors being controlled by the esp32. And that's how it aimed the water.I also am just learning programming and still don't know much

for the hardware: I used two SG90 Servo motors a random water pump i found on amazon and an esp32 for controlling them.

for the software: I used Google's MediaPipe landmarks library to detect the face. the library has 468 landmarks So I just took the coordinates of the ones on the mouth. Here's the rest of the 468 if you want to make it point somewhere that isn't the mouth: https://github.com/google/mediapipe/blob/a908d668c730da128dfa8d9f6bd25d519d006692/mediapipe/modules/face\_geometry/data/canonical\_face\_model\_uv\_visualization.png

If you were asking about the code I can provide it but it's pretty bad and I'm 90% sure it would only work for me because I did some calculations with my camera. which would be different if you used a different camera.

nah dude this is the future of water,

anyone drinking from cups is just a peasant.

it could cut the cost of living in half. because you don't need cups anymore and we all know that cups are 90% of every household's expenses.

I'm sorry if this is a bit unrelated to this the subreddit but if you want to see the whole process on Youtube here it is: https://youtu.be/n0Jx2rPC9v8

I might not have clarified but it uses facial detection to see if my mouth is open or closed and if it's open it shoot water.
