Sparkjs streaming+LoD is now stable(ish). This flythrough is over 100m splats rendered in browser. The splats are chunked into ~900 pages with a working set of around 16million splats. I think it can handle arbitrary size worlds now. Anyone have a 1 billion splat I can try?

When internal exploration gets constrained by the operating system, external learning becomes the next logical lever. For some, that means partnerships. For others, acquisitions. And increasingly, some form of venture engagement, small, deliberate investments in companies

You cannot forecast like you used to. The variables do not move one at a time. Every decision has second-order effects faster than before. And the cost of being late is no longer linear. You are not just making choices under uncertainty. You are making choices while the map is

Thanks to enhanced annotated training on arm data, the AI can recognize arm movements in video footage with greater precision. It is able to quickly identify crossed and overlapping arm motions and convert the video into XYZ skeletal joint data.

Happy to finally get my Reachy Mini by @pollenrobotics .. a great project from one of our angels, @Thom_Wolf (@huggingface ). Really great packaged hardware: Cand wait to be testing embodied AI interaction over time, not just in demos. When intelligence is embodied, memory,

🖼️ NEW: High-Res Texture Stamping for Gaussian Splatting! Using my Splat Toolkit for Unity Drop any image directly into your 3D splat scenes as real splats ✨ 📐 Up to 512×512 resolution (262K splats!) 🎨 Blend modes: Multiply, Screen, Overlay 📚 Layer stacking with depth

that’s the interface to AI I’ve always dreamed of

the principles behind steve jobs’ vision: start with taste, not technology; technology was never the point. taste was. jobs believed most people don’t know what they want until you show it to them. vision comes from cultivated judgment, not surveys. end to end control:

Ran Meta's SAM 3 on a chase sequence from Uncharted 4 to test its performance on video game footage. It did pretty well. Simple additional prompts are enough to extend detection to many other objects in the scene.

Researchers are using Marble to generate simulation-ready robotics environments (scenes + collider meshes) then bring them into @NVIDIARobotics Isaac Sim for training + evaluation without any manual environment setup. Case Study: https://t.co/PzvcMkl2JI

first reactions of devs receiving their Reachy Minis are overwhelmingly positive

We live in a rushed world. Rushed decisions. Rushed judgment. Rushed success. But what i learned from my grandma is clear: “The plans of the diligent lead surely to profit, as surely as haste leads to poverty.” Proverbs 21:5 Time doesn’t mature us. Time reveals whether we

this is extremely creative everyday we take a step toward unlocking a ground truth representation of our world in latent space

New paper from Apple - Sharp Monocular View Synthesis in Less than a Second Mescheder et al. @ Apple just released a very impressive paper (congrats! 🎉🥳). You give it an image and it generates a really great looking 3d Gaussian representation. Uses depth pro. It's really good.

There are principles that must be followed in order to live life how it was meant to be lived. *Only by embracing the principles, do we embrace the promises.* The people had too big a picture of themselves & had become proud & self-reliant. But *“self-made people” are just

We're looking for the best research scientists, engineers, and data scientist in the NYC area, please reach out!

Points of Gravity. 2024 An exploration of spatial logic and volume. Through a simulation of 1 million autonomous particles, this piece examines the delicate balance between cohesion and collapse, redefining our understanding of solid form.

Huge I’ve been saying wearables/AR are essentially uninvestable today due to no SDK for 3rd parties. Maybe that changes now :)

This developer built an AR app that lets you have a conversation with a book.

CoDA can take hand-only manipulation datasets and automatically generate corresponding whole-body motions.
