localsend VS AI-on-the-edge-device

I agree and get your point.

But localsend has worked well for me. Yes, it requires an app but if we could get vendors to bundle that rather than a boatload of bloatware.

I know that it would be to optimistic to hope for Google.

See https://localsend.org/

Spread the word.

Something to consider, although I'm not sure how much it practically matters.

It works like a charm, and is really easy to use

Use local send to send files and folders.

I've recently discovered and can recommend LocalSend. It's FOSS, cross-platform, and it just works. Github page with more details here

Edit: This is very simple implementation, even a POC, for personal use between our own devices at home or other personal private network. Even works on hotspot. But no HTTPS, so don's use on non-private networks. LocalSend, as suggested by u/Fede777 seems to be better for every other use.

This is what I am using for this exact purpose: https://github.com/jomjol/AI-on-the-edge-device

Anyway, in case decoding the radio traffic gets you nowhere, this works reasonably well.

I was looking for a way to collect readings of our water clock and stumbled upon this (https://github.com/jomjol/AI-on-the-edge-device) interesting hw/sw project to aquire data from old measuring devices (water, power, gas,...) with tflite and ocr.

I think this would be better https://github.com/jomjol/AI-on-the-edge-device. It's esp camera with ai detection for water meters, I use it also as monitoring for electricity.. the new firmware has HA support over mqtt. It's more diy but once you set it up it works like a charm.
