Meet OwnOwl, your new 3D printed AI companion! 🦉 This isn't just a static model; it’s a living desktop pet that tracks your movements and reacts to your presence.

OwnOwl uses an integrated ESP32-CAM to "see" the world. Using AI face-detection algorithms, it identifies when someone is nearby and uses a motorized gear system to turn its head and follow you. With its expressive digital eyes (dual TFT screens), a built-in microphone to "hear", and custom sound effects, OwnOwl brings a touch of artificial life to your desk.

🔥 MAKER NOTE (Experimental V1) 🔥 This is an Experimental V1 release. I am sharing this project with the community as a "Work in Progress."

Screen Fit: The current 3D chassis might require some minor manual sanding or cutting around the eye sockets to fit your specific TFT screens perfectly.
DIY Project: This is a high-level maker project involving two microcontrollers (ESP32-S3 and ESP32-CAM), soldering, and firmware flashing.
Key Features:

AI Face Tracking: Real-time tracking using human face detection.
Audio Interaction: Built-in microphone for listening and speaker for hooting/alarms.
Interactive Eyes: Animated eyes on dual displays.
3D Printed Design: Fully printable body with internal mechanical gears.
