[TheSummerSpeaks @TheGoodAI1]

NOOO NOT MY LLM HONEY POT

the Steam page for d.r.a.f.t. is finally live! full body tracking in VRChat using Kinects & iPhones, built with custom ML models! go wishlist it so you don't miss the upcoming launch

@AUT0M4T1C_JACK @aexlabinc Yooo!!! Huge!!!

That along with our current mouth tracker product needing its own continued development required us to postpone the eye tracking expressions release. We still plan on release this feature as soon as we physically have the manpower to push it to the finish line. (2/2)

Seeing this video circulate again, I wanted to give some reasoning to why it isn't out. Steam Frame shifted our plans in a big way for 2026, and we wanted to allocate our engineers (myself included) differently as soon as it was announced. (1/2)

[Project Babble @projectBabbleVR]

There is much work to be done

[TheSummerSpeaks @TheGoodAI1]

@Cade_XR Trust me bro just another million GPU hours, just another trillion more tokens, just another model architecture change and we’ll be on the moon bro you gotta trust me bro

Okok so would people rather have babble focus more on interoperability or on polish and tracking quality? Theoretically by removing some of the scope we’d be able to focus more on tracking quality of our devices but at the cost of DIY/other devices working worse.

Let’s see what this new year has planned for us all here in the DIY VR community. I’m proud of the work of the babble team team, and contributors have done to make 2025 one of the best years of DIY VR ever. I can promise you we’re going to make 2026 even better!

[TheSummerSpeaks @TheGoodAI1]

@Benaclejames @projectBabbleVR Very true tbh

[TheSummerSpeaks @TheGoodAI1]

world class developers at @projectBabbleVR

So like uh anyone know a headset manufacturer who'd want to run babble FT (or our new ET) as their native solution or will we just have to make a headset😅

@bozoid Tbh AVP is prob the best example of what happens when you take an emerging platform that needs a solid use-case to draw people in, and then depreive it of that thing by making it inaccessible. Meanwhile the other major players are making lots of strides to make it easier to dev
