Custom ESP32 Digital Pet Build 🐾
ANGELGOTCHI V2
Progressed from Raspberry Pi breadboard (MicroPython) to ESP32 + C++ (Arduino IDE) with extensive AI assistance (Grok/Claude/GPT) in VSCode.
Designed and iterated 3D-printed cases until I had two solid production-ready versions. Device features:
- Capacitive touchscreen
- Step counter / activity tracking
- Virtual pet system
- Camera integration
- Fully 3D-printed enclosure
Insane learning curve. From concept to functional hardware.
