Field Notes IRL. Touch the grass!

Описание и применение

Пользователи записывают аудио заметки во время прогулок с помощью простого устройства на базе Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W, затем транскрибируют их и генерируют личные журнальные записи локально на ноутбуке, сохраняя данные офлайн и получая напоминания о погоде для прогулок.

Задача

People go outside but spend time on phones instead of engaging with the moment.

Результат

The system allows users to capture outdoor moments via a simple recorder, transcribe and generate reflective journal entries locally, keeping all data offline and providing weather nudges to encourage outdoor activity.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. Record a note with the Raspberry Pi Pico 2 W recorder while outside.
• 2. Bring the recorder home and copy the audio files to the laptop.
• 3. Transcribe the audio with Whisper via Ollama.
• 4. Generate a journal entry and weekly recap with Gemma 4 via Ollama.
• 5. Optionally check weather with SerpAPI to receive a touch‑grass nudge.

Доказательства

Field Notes is a screen‑free voice journal. While I'm outside, I press a button on a small homemade recorder and say whatever I notice: "pretty bird out here, gonna get a salad."

Источник

When I get home, a local app on my laptop transcribes the notes with Whisper, and Gemma 4 turns them into a short journal entry for that outing, with a nudge for next time and a weekly recap.

Nothing leaves my laptop. No account, no cloud, no internet needed.(except for weather data if the user wants it)
