AI climbing coach – visualize how to climb any route based on your body
I made SABR - an AI model that helps you visualize the beta/technique on any route, based on your body parameters. You can input a video of you climbing any route, in any orientation or lighting condition (it's truly versatile!). SABR then creates a virtual avatar of your body shape and uses it to climb the route you're climbing. Then, you can compare/contrast. You can see the demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnvNPWoYZz4 Will be open sourcing the model, backend, and frontend codebase soon!

In plain words
AI Climbing Coach is a tool that helps climbers improve their technique by analyzing videos of their climbing. Users upload a video of themselves on any route, and the AI creates a virtual avatar matching their body shape to demonstrate alternative climbing strategies. By comparing their actual climbing with the AI-generated technique, climbers can visualize better movement patterns and body positioning. The software works with videos in any orientation or lighting condition and is designed for climbers seeking to optimize their approach to routes.

- MLMy local climbing gym from photogrammetryAug 2026 · kmcheung12.github.io · ▲29
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.…
