My Asakusa travel map
🔗https://t.co/YQbTFCgCzF
My Asakusa by Sadako Sawamura, it’s a great memoir and I recommend it to anyone planning to visit Asakusa or Tokyo in general.
I made a map showing all the real Asakusa locations mentioned in the book, with page references & things to do. Try it out if you are in the area or just curious about the real locations of her stories.

Was testing how good body tracking on web actually is 🧪
Built a quick poc:
camera → pose → play (30+ FPS)
No install. Just URL. 3s start.
This might fit really well for
→ rehab
→ elderly care
→ HR wellness
Works on Mobile too👇

Ever wondered why navigation cant be fun?
I built a gamified geolocation system to change that.
Enter route coordinates,
Turn paths into interactive gameplay w/ collectables.
Unlock contextual info along the way.
Navigation becomes a gaming journey 🎮📍

My first try with @augg_io for #hackathonWinter2025 ✨
Mission: hunt the missing spell pieces to summon the meme god cat 😼🔮
Setup was smooth, with multi-tracking + persistence working great.
Perfect for large-area AR! 🚀

🎧 Added audio support to the DeviceMap PoC
Audio can now be recorded, loaded, or AI-generated, and anchored to space.
Combined with AR drawing, any environment can become a virtual exhibition space.
