You can see the prompt in the ComfyUI screenshot.

Another digital human / digital avatar test, this time using a LORA trained Wan2.1 model on 27 images.
(I've used ComfyUI for inference/tests. This is WIP: just 14 epochs trained)

This is a rough screenshot of the dataset

[George Profenza @orgicus]

The dataset was generated using VHAP ( https://t.co/iLucqgMEb3 ). (The mesh is about 10K triangles)

[George Profenza @orgicus]

First tests trying out Gaussian Avatars ! Congratulations to the teams at @TU_Muenchen and @Woven_Toyota for the amazing work !

@AmandaAskell I don’t know enough about law, however my intuition tells me, yes. Bob should instead of killing Pete, argue his wrong conviction and get paid for his 30 years. Depending on the system, Pete might have a tough time arguing he’s legally alive 😅 https://t.co/OJ0aGFGQir

Excited to have a case study for our largest format project EVER finally onlinez 10m^2 of pixel madness😱📺✨made with WebGL and @nodes_io.

@BryanChrisBrown @willeastcott If you inspect your .ply file with a binary/hex viewer you can double check the header section which is ASCII. Ideally the .ply will have the properties a trained 3DGS (x, y, z, f_dc0, f_dc1, f_dc2, opacity, scale_0, scale_1, scale_2, rot_0, rot_1, rot_2, rot_3). HTH

[George Profenza @orgicus]

@JoshuaDavis @ProcessingOrg You can try rendering to SVG instead of canvas. I’ve used https://t.co/qltInT2uMH in the past. HTH

@drv_kmr has been working hard on his first Kickstarter campaign: a beautiful programmable light piece. Its controllable via #dmx (#streamingacn #artnet) as well as #mqtt Home Automation. It uses temp, CO2, humidity sensors driving Tamagotchi like interactions with simulated fish

Livegrid is published on @Hacksterio with a heavy headline🙃. We need more exposure like this, please share Livegrid in your network and help us reach the right people.
25 days to go !

@AndyTWoods A pleasure meeting you and the team! I do remember the creativity as3 required to get past limitations, but I also appreciate the freedom to apply the same energy to other creative coding toolkits like Processing, OpenFrameworks, etc

[George Profenza @orgicus]

I'm fortunate to be giving a talk on the @opencvlibrary Webinar today to talk about Invisible: the Markerless Motion Capture solution by @disguise_one and https://t.co/iOeXRZvc29.

It will not to technical,but hopefully fun

Feel free to join me in a few hours: 9AM PDT / 5PM GMT

[OpenCV - Open Source Computer Vision Library @opencvlive]

This Thursday on OpenCV Live we'll get a visit from OpenCV community member George Profenza, who will be showing us the new hotness in motion capture: It's called "Invisible"

[George Profenza @orgicus]

@yaxu @RebeccaFiebrink Similarly Gesture Recognition Toolkit (GRT) might be worth a try (https://t.co/SPI8g4Re3F)

[George Profenza @orgicus]

@yaxu Might a bit late to the party, but Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) comes to mind. I remember @RebeccaFiebrink's Wekinator handles this already (using OSC to get data in/out). I'd suspect you'd need to show it examples of each motion to 'count' separately first, then count repetitions

[Matteo Menapace 🍉 @baddeo]

I'm doing a Reddit AMA with @mattleacock at 12 noon EDT // 5pm BST today (aka now!)
We'll be talking about the Daybreak crowdfunder, but ask ask us anything!
