Claim: a dog actually sends MMS selfies. Built a cigar‑box device with a USB webcam, a $10 big red button, Pi on a breakout board and PiPiper reading GPIO; software runs fswebcam to capture, uploads via Dropbox SDK, and uses Twilio to send MMS. Notes: compares Arduino Yun ($70, discontinued) to Raspberry Pi 3 ($35), shows the exact commands, Ruby snippets and ngrok tunnel used, and demonstrates it working end‑to‑end.
