Pet Activity Monitor Kit v4
Pet Activity Monitor Kit v4 — Instant Telegram Photo Alerts with ESP32-S3 AI Camera
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Your pet moves around — you’re busy, but you want to know when someone enters their space. This kit puts an AI-powered camera on guard. Assemble a compact unit that streams live OV2640 video over WiFi, runs FOMO person detection right on the ESP32-S3, and fires a Telegram photo message the instant a person is spotted.
What You'll Build
You'll create a standalone monitor mountable on a wall or table. The ESP32-S3 streams the OV2640 feed to a browser and analyzes frames with a lightweight FOMO model. As soon as a person enters the frame, the system captures a snapshot and pushes it to your Telegram chat — no cloud subscription, no latency.
What You'll Learn
- Train and deploy a FOMO person detection model on an ESP32-S3 board
- Stream live OV2640 camera video over WiFi with minimal delay
- Configure a Telegram bot to receive instant photo alerts from the device
- Combine PIR sensor, buck converter, and decoupling capacitors for a stable embedded system

Who This Kit Is For
Final-year engineering students building IoT projects for Smart India Hackathon or capstone; B.Tech ECE/EEE majors at IITs, NITs, VIT, BITS Pilani who want hands-on edge AI experience; hobbyists ready to assemble a pet surveillance system with AI alerts without debugging part mismatches.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code to open the AI companion trained on this kit; it will guide you through each step. For a stubborn issue, send a WhatsApp message and we'll walk you through it.
Do I need prior experience with edge AI?
No. The kit includes a pre-trained FOMO model and the companion deploys it interactively, so even newcomers will get the alert system running.
Can I modify the detection to recognize my pet instead?
Yes. Once you understand the pipeline, retrain FOMO using images of your pet to detect activities like eating or sleeping.
What if Telegram alerts don't work?
The companion has a dedicated troubleshooting flow for WiFi and bot configuration; you can also ping us on WhatsApp for direct help.
