24 alternatives to Egocentric and Exocentric Body Caputre from iPhones only
From 8 -> 5 -> 4 exocentric cameras, all visualized with rerun.io. I've been working on human pose capture for robotics training data and have started making it more accessible by dropping the number of cameras used and collecting my own data to make sure I'm not overfitting to open-source datasets. I've made lots of improvements to the calibration code and ended up merging the full body estimator with the hands only. Also FINALLY got ego synced and working in the full thing. Full body model really excels in exo views and is worth using if one can get a get view of the upper body, and hands…

Before the pandemic, my tiny startup was doing quite well selling Edge AI systems, based on our own lightweight AI inference engine, with object detection and face recognition for smart city and smart retail & food service applications. When the real world shut down, there was suddenly nothing to monitor on streets and in restaurants, so I set out to try and evolve our real time face recognition system into a video codec for high quality face-to-face online interactions, as I was not satisfied with the quality of Zoom and friends. I got it to work, and the first release for IOS was just…

MVP of Multiview Video → Camera parameters + 3D keypoints. The basic pipeline as of right now looks like this: 1. Capture – Using 4 iPhones and an Insta360 Go. iPhone videos are captured via Final Cut Pro Multicam for easy sync and the exocentric view; the Insta360 Go is used for the egocentric view. 2. Sync – Custom Gradio app using two @rerundotio viewers and callbacks for easily aligning frame timestamps so the ego and exo views are aligned. 3. Calibrate – Use VGGT from Meta to get intrinsics/extrinsics for sparse cameras. 4. Estimate 3D – Use RTMLib whole‑body keypoint estimator on…

I built a tool to reduce shopping returns. The tool provides accurate body measurements from images or video. By providing accurate measurements, customers will have confidence while shopping. The demo is free, so give it a try. All thoughts and feedback are appreciated.

After playing with AI Avatars (like many of us I guess around here), I started to wonder if we could instead bring real value to people by producing affordable professional head-shots using a combination of Dreambooth and ControlNet. Obviously it's only the beginning and there are still many imperfections, but the foundational tech behind this (Dreambooth and ControlNet) are only respectively 6 months and 1.5 month old, and already delivers pretty amazing results. I came up with this little service "Virtual Face" and I'm looking for feedback if some of you are willing to try it (you can use…

I made this iPhone app called "Affine Tuning" which is a collection of body-interactive musical pieces: https://affinetuning.com/ It uses body tracking (Motion Capture from RealityKit) to shape dynamic compositions. The app is completely free and will be updated in the future with more songs and other interactive features.

Commented on yesterday's Ask HN: What are you working on? (August 2026), thought I might as well submit a Show HN. If you see climbing world cup/championship, there is this 3D modelling thing [1]. I want that for my weekly bouldering. I scanned my local climbing gym into 3D mesh using iphone. Built a simple editor to trim, merge, move/rotate meshes. You can interact with the mesh, view routes, view climb, etc. So this is unlike many gaussian splatting projects where the main use is for viewing. I built a pipeline in updating climbing walls. Climbing routes are manually annotated.…

Daydream▲19I adapted VACE to work with real-time autoregressive video generation. Here's what it can do right now in real time: - Depth, pose, optical flow, scribble, edge maps — all the v2v control stuff - First frame animation / last frame lead-in / keyframe interpolation - Inpainting with static or dynamic masks - Stacking stuff together (e.g. depth + LoRA, inpainting + reference images) - Reference-to-video is in there too but honestly quality isn't great yet compared to batch Getting ~20 fps for most control modes on a 5090 at 368x640 with the 1.3B models. Image-to-video hits ~28 fps.…

Hello HN, I recently posted a work-in-progress paper, along with code necessary for replicating all its results, at: https://github.com/glassroom/heinsen_routing Among other things, the code in this repo outperforms Hinton et al.'s recent state-of-the-art result in visual recognition[0] while requiring fewer parameters and an order-of-magnitude fewer training epochs. Most of the original research we do at work tends to be either proprietary in nature or tightly coupled to internal code, so we cannot share it with the world. In this case, however, I was able to remove all…

After being frustrated with the budget and learning curve requirements of the big names in the Virtual Production field, I decided to create my own all-in-one platform designed with beginners and less-technical folk in mind. It takes complicated tasks in other engines (tracking, compositing, floor plans, etc.) and makes them two-click solutions. And, with the free companion mobile app, you can track cameras, scan your sets, and (coming soon) do full body motion capture! There's a ton more features that I'm super proud of, and I'm open to any and all feedback! Thanks!

I've just launched this little iOS app as an alternative to Apple Fitness, which is cluttered and chaotic when it comes to visualizing basic workout stats and metrics. The idea is to focus on a clean, minimalistic design and only show high-level metrics that are actually useful, e.g. how often did I work out this week/month/year, cardio vs strength vs mobility, surf session count in February, etc. It's free and offline. Also, no signup, no ads, no data sharing, no social feeds, and no notifications. Just open it and get a quick glance at the state of your workout game within 2s.…

Hello everyone! I just launched an iOS app called RetouchAI! You can easily type in a prompt, ask the AI to enhance it and generate a cool image you can download to your gallery. Also you can expand the generated image (or any other from your gallery/camera) beyond the borders, making a cool “zoom-out” effect. See examples of the quality of the images you can create visiting https://www.getretouchai.app/#gallery. More features to come, including inpainting, erasing and upscaling. You have 5 free credits to use the app, and there’s no need to login. Just download it and…

i built a heart rate zone training app for runners. ios + apple watch. custom zones, real-time haptics, post-run graphs. all the “smart” stuff you’d expect. but i never talked to a single runner before building it. not even myself lol. started as a thesis → kept building → added features → added a paywall (€4/month!) → launched it → and yeah… no one cared. zero feedback. zero users. just code in the void. i recently made the whole thing free. not trying to “sell” anything now — just seeing if it’s actually useful, and listening this time. curious how others handle this. ever build…
