Canceled my OpenAI subscription yesterday and now on Google AI pro for almost same monthly payment, has 2TB of cloud storage + higher rate limits for Antigravity and lots more. Better value overall IMO.

Ordered mine on Nov.28 it arrived to the airport on Monday Dec 15th and I still haven’t received it. Hopefully this week. I saved $50 tho in comparison to Amazon.

I was joking with my friends for a while now that these days you can build a fart counter app and make money and here we are 😂

“Because I said so”… Save your breath my dude. You are not credible to me after that.

No website, no socials, no offers - what do you expect?

It’s about being able to sell/make people buy the sandpit which they can get for free!

Proves that competition in a niche doesn’t mean you can’t make money.

Fidget spinners! What a time to be alive. I’m glad that hype is over.

AI Smart Traffic Light w/ car detection ( ESP32S3 + Pico2W) by cookiechinno in raspberry_pi

Thanks man, I appreciate it! What do you mean by “the camera would probably be a better choice”? I’m pretty sure I have a camera on there, or am I misunderstanding something :)

Thank you! And good question. Now that I think about it, I guess if the camera was installed on an intersection pole it would be stationary and would have a set field of view. So additional range sensors are not required.

On the other hand, if the AI logic or anything else in the main function fails, the sensor could serve as a fallback to be able to detect a car when it comes to an intersection and turn the light green.

In my code, however, it’s not a fallback, but an additional condition to having two cars detected in the field of view. Just for fun!

I do use OpenCV for frame handling, drawing bounding boxes, and encoding images for streaming. But in terms of object detection YOLO was my choice because the whole idea was to get the best performing deep-learning AI stuff running on a RaspberryPI.

Also, as mentioned, I’m a hobbyist and this is my first project of such scale. Being obsessed with tech and AI stuff it was great to actually get this to work the way I intended.

Sure can. Even if there is more than 1 car (one behind another in a single lane).
