*** WARNING *** TARGET ACQUIRED *** YOU WILL BE ROASTED *** WARNING ***

~*~ HaMMeR iN a BoX ~*~

An AI-powered, ultrasonic-triggered, Terminator-grade roasting machine.
Detect a target. Identify them with Gemini. Roast them in T-800's voice.
Finish with a bark from Brian Griffin. Engineering at its most unhinged.

Arduino + HC-SR04 Ultrasonic + LCD I2C + Python + Gemini API + OpenCV + TTS

How the Hammer Drops

Five stages of escalation, from passive detection to verbal annihilation.

01 DETECT
The ultrasonic sensor pings continuously, watching for a person to enter range.
02 STATUS
Arduino lights up the LCD: target locked, system armed, scanning sequence engaged.
03 CAPTURE
The Arduino signals the laptop, which fires up the external camera and snaps a frame.
04 ROAST
Gemini identifies the subject and generates a roast in the voice of the Terminator.
05 DELIVER
Text-to-speech reads the roast. Then Brian Griffin barks. Target retreats.

The Brian Griffin Protocol

Brian Griffin
BARK.MP3 - DETERRENT
Every great weapons system needs a closer. After the roast lands, the box plays a clip of Brian Griffin barking - a final, undignified push to send the target back where they came from.

It is, scientifically speaking, the most effective civilian deterrent ever deployed in a dorm room.
