Dream Crushers

Wouldn't it be a dream, if you could study a day before an exam and get great marks the next day? For that you'd need to pull an all-nighter. We present to you, our robot that detects you dozing off

Inspiration

We were brainstorming about dreams we wish we could achieve. The dream of staying up and pulling an all nighter without getting sleepy.

What it does

Our robot uses openCv to detect eye coordination and face detection so it can detect where your face moves and if you eyes are closed or not. The spray bottle tracks and follows your face. When your eyes are closed for longer than 6 seconds, a servo pulls the spray bottle trigger and sprays water in your face.

How we built it

We built it using servos, 3d printed parts, arduino, and wiring. For the front end application whcih we were trying to run the robot on, it was done using socket programming using clients and servers.

Challenges we ran into

We were unable to finish the application end so we have to run through the terminal itself.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud that we were able to complete the robot, and it calibrates and moves relative to the face movement so water is shot directly on the face.

What we learned

I learnt how to use and trouble shoot open cv, as well as how the whole arduino system works with the hardware

What's next for Dream Crushers

improve the project further and make it more complex, perhaps a voice and speaker integrated so that it tells you to wake up w voice.
