Luck - The Smart Hummingbird Feeder

Hummingbirds are adorable but impossibly quick — by the time one lands, reaching for the phone is already too late. bbpeco's Luck turns the feeder into a smart camera: it detects arrivals and pushes an alert to your phone, where you can watch the live stream, hear their calls, even make sounds to interact — or deter unwanted visitors. Video recording starts automatically when something flies by; AI identifies 300+ hummingbird species and 10,000+ bird species. The standout is nectar monitoring: a corrosion-resistant titanium probe analyzes soluble solids, ionic organic compounds and heavy-metal ions at 96% accuracy to catch spoilage, with level monitoring ensuring fresh nectar. Hand-blown glass makes each unit unique; solar-assisted power gives ~3 months standby, and IP66 waterproofing allows direct rinsing. Launched in August 2024, it drew 1,039 backers and raised $178,111 — 3,562% of its $5,000 goal.
