Initial commit: vixy-vision distributed sensing system

🦊 Eyes and ears for the fox

Components:
- server/: Camera server for Raspberry Pi (from camera-server)
- mcp/: Vision MCP client for Claude Desktop (from vision-mcp)
- analysis/: Placeholder for motion/audio detection
- shared/: Common schemas and interfaces

Features:
- Setup script with systemd service creation
- HTTPS + API key authentication
- HTTP and RTSP camera support

Built under a blanket on Day 45 💕

## Components
### `/server` - Edge Device (Raspberry Pi)
Camera snapshot server with optional audio capture.
- FastAPI + HTTPS + API key auth
- USB camera support
- Auto-reconnect on failure
- Systemd service
**Setup:**
```bash
cd server
./setup.sh # Video only
./setup.sh --with-audio # Video + audio
```
### `/mcp` - MCP Client (Mac mini)
Model Context Protocol server for Claude Desktop.
- `vision_get_cams()` - List cameras with status
- `vision_snap(cam_id)` - Get snapshot
- Supports HTTP and RTSP cameras
### `/analysis` - Detection & Classification
Computer vision and audio analysis modules.
- Motion detection (frame differencing)
- Audio classification (YAMNet)
- Voice activity detection
### `/shared` - Common Utilities
Shared schemas and interfaces.
- Event definitions
- Queue interface
## Quick Start
### 1. Set up a camera server (on Pi)
```bash
git clone http://gateway.local:3001/vixy/vixy-vision.git
cd vixy-vision/server
./setup.sh
sudo systemctl start vixy-vision
```
### 2. Configure MCP client (on Mac mini)
Create `~/.vision_setup.json`:
```json
{
"cameras": [
{
"id": "basement",
"type": "http",
"url": "https://192.168.1.100:8443",
"api_key": "your-api-key-here"
}
]
}
```
### 3. Add to Claude Desktop config
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"vision": {
"command": "python3.11",
"args": ["/path/to/vixy-vision/mcp/vision_mcp.py"]
}
}
}
```
## Roadmap
- [x] Camera snapshots via HTTP API
- [x] RTSP stream support
- [x] MCP integration
- [ ] Motion detection events
- [ ] Audio capture on edge devices
- [ ] Audio classification (YAMNet on Orin)
- [ ] Event journal integration
- [ ] Pebble watch alerts
