Features

Live Object Detection

Uses SSD MobileNet V2 via TensorFlow Hub to detect objects in real-time at ~10 FPS on CPU. Draws bounding boxes and labels on the video stream.

Head Tracking

The robot smoothly tracks the largest detected object, turning its head to follow it across the camera frame.

Antenna Reactions

Antennas wiggle when a new type of object is spotted for the first time — a fun visual cue for discovery.

Web Dashboard

Live annotated video feed with detection list, FPS counter, and a toggle to enable/disable head tracking.
