24 alternatives to Rebuilding ARKit 3D Reconstruction
I want to rebuild ARKit's VIO and depth estimation in an open-source way. This is a blog post on the steps I'm taking to build this out. Mostly data work to start and choosing the right dataset to do it (in this case ARKitScenes!) Let me know if you have any questions.

Hey! My name is Dima, I am from Ukraine and I am the co-founder of Lost Pixel! We built this tool to solve our problems at work and decided to open-source it so more people can build their custom visual regression testing pipelines! If you want to chat about the tool or visual regression testing in general I am super excited to meet like-minded people! Thanks a lot for checking out the product and I hope it will serve you well if you decide to try it out :D

I’m a Technical Artist. I built anyCreature, an open-source, mesh-based generative harness designed to programmatically quantify and enforce 3D aesthetics through three automated pipeline checks: 1. QC Thresholds: Automated pass/fail checks for standard game-engine specs (poly count, vertex budget, rigging, and animation tracks). 2. Quantified Aesthetics: Spatial vertex analysis to objectively measure mass distribution and form tension, ensuring biologically logical anatomy. 3. Silhouette & Readability: Automated high-contrast B&W renders and 24px thumbnail tests to guarantee visual…

I think it's finally time to lock version 0.2 of my 4d side project. (Since previous Show HN a couple of years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37100760 I scrapped lots of stuff and concentrated on making a javascript "game engine") The sole purpose of this project is to explore whether it's possible to make the human brain spatially aware of four dimensions using Virtual Reality. It’s my first ever game project, my first time using Unity, first time writing C#, and my first anything with WebXR, so please be gentle! To manage expectations, it isn't visually pleasing…

I built a browser-based port of fogleman/primitive — a Go CLI tool that approximates images using primitive shapes (triangles, ellipses, beziers, etc.) via a hill-climbing algorithm. The original tool requires building from source and running from the terminal, which isn't exactly accessible. I compiled the core logic to WebAssembly so anyone can drop an image and watch it get reconstructed shape by shape, entirely client-side with no server involved. Demo: https://primitive-playground.taiseiue.jp/ Source:…
