Smart Doorbell Camera Kit v4: Pi 5 Skeleton Tracking & Robot Arm
Smart Doorbell Camera Kit v4 - Raspberry Pi 5 AI Project with Skeleton Tracking and Robot Arm
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Imagine a doorbell camera that doesn't just record visitors but understands their intent - and acts on it. With the Smart Doorbell Camera Kit v4, you'll build an AI security system that uses skeleton tracking on a Raspberry Pi 5 to detect a person's reach direction, then a custom 4-axis robot arm moves to assist by handing over a tool. It's more than a surveillance gadget; it's a glimpse into AI-powered home assistance.
What You'll Build
By the end of the project, you'll have a fully functional smart doorbell camera running on a Raspberry Pi 5 with an NVMe SSD for fast AI processing. The Pi Camera Module 3 captures the scene, a skeleton-tracking model identifies a human's arm extension, and the robot arm - built with four MG996R servos through a PCA9685 driver - reacts to deliver a requested item. The system demonstrates real-time computer vision and robotic control in a single, cohesive setup.
What You'll Learn
- Set up a Raspberry Pi 5 with M.2 NVMe SSD for accelerated AI inference
- Train and deploy a skeleton-tracking model using MediaPipe or OpenCV
- Interface multiple MG996R servos via a PCA9685 servo driver
- Design real-time robotic control logic that responds to gesture detection

Who This Kit Is For
This kit fits B.Tech ECE/EEE students building final-year projects, Smart India Hackathon participants prototyping AI-robotics solutions, and ATL Tinkering Lab facilitators introducing advanced computer vision. Class 11-12 students with Python experience and an interest in embedded systems will find it a compelling challenge that bridges software and hardware.
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 exact kit; real-time WhatsApp support is also included.
What programming languages are required?
Python is the primary language; basic familiarity is helpful, but the AI companion guides you through every script.
Can I repurpose the robot arm for other tasks?
Yes - once you understand the servo control logic, you can reprogram the arm for pick-and-place, sorting, or gesture-based games.
Does the kit work without an internet connection?
The skeleton tracking model runs locally on the Raspberry Pi 5; no cloud connection is needed for operation.
Doorbell Security - Skeleton tracking on Pi 5 detects human reach direction - robot arm moves to assist by handing over the requested tool.
