💡 Pro Tips

More data = better model. 50 samples is the minimum. 200+ is where it gets reliable.
Train in the conditions you'll actually use it. Bad lighting at your desk? Train in bad lighting.
Always add a "background" or "nothing" class so the model doesn't hallucinate detections.
Test from different distances and angles. If it only works when you hold the object perfectly still, it's not ready.
Bonus: Connect your model to a real action (auto-minimize a window, trigger a sound, send a notification).
