PhoneTag

What it does

Clip a PhoneTag on a kid's backpack, a pet, or anything you love. Anyone who finds it scans with their camera and a private live video call opens in their browser. No app for them, your number stays hidden, and an AI assistant answers when you can't.

Clip a PhoneTag on your child

Wear it on the wrist or clip it on the backpack. A teacher, coach, or kind stranger points their camera at it and your phone rings with a live video call. No app for them. Your number stays private. The Smart Band adds a pocket for an Apple AirTag, so you get the map too. Visible. Trackable. Connected. An AirTag tells you where they are. It cannot let the person standing next to them reach you. The Smart Band carries both: the AirTag underneath for the map, the PhoneTag on top so one scan starts a live video call to you, with no app and no number shared. PhoneTag started at our kitchen table. As a mom, I wanted my kids' school, their coaches, and any kind stranger to be able to reach us in…from phonetagapp.com

  Clipto MCP▲655

  Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  Simple algorithm and color space to generate diverse skin tones▲627

  Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
