📢 We are excited to share our new preprint from @BUrgenlab : "HR-ACT (Human-Robot Action) Database: Communicative and Noncommunicative Action Videos Featuring a Human and a Humanoid Robot" via @OSFramework. Here is the link: https://t.co/B1CwHIjreP

Recently started a small C library for mesh loading with 0 dependencies. Just finished glTF support, and it's starting to become relatively usable https://t.co/zZDAE5daKh
Also supports OBJ and JTF. I want to add a few more formats doable without dependencies, prob. 3ds/ply/ms3d.

[RenderDoc @RenderDoc]

RenderDoc v1.36 is now available! This version brings support for debugging DXIL shaders, as well as adding raytracing capture support to Vulkan and D3D12.

@j_bikker Is it going to be recorded or live streamed by any chance? It would be great if it will be so, I'd like to follow it.

[Serkan Pekçetin @serkan3k]

@Varaquilex I can smell them from here. City with best SpeedTree presets that's for sure.

[Serkan Pekçetin @serkan3k]

@GiderosMobile Unfortunately, the link doesn't work. Looking forward to it nonetheless.

[Baldur Karlsson @baldurk]

For anyone who feels up to experimenting on the bleeding edge, I have a @RenderDoc branch with improved DX11 shader debugging, allowing debugging at HLSL level with callstack & HLSL locals.

Feedback/bug reports are welcome, it's still work-in-progress!

Today, I had the honor of giving a talk at the Bilkent University Psychology Department Colloquium, presenting my PhD work to an engaged audience of valuable faculty and students.🫂 I am grateful for the invitation and so excited to continue my research as a postdoc at Bilkent!☀️

[Serkan Pekçetin @serkan3k]

@j_bikker I'd be the first in line.

[Tuğçe Nur Pekçetin @TugceNPekcetin]

I’ve spent nearly half my life as a student at Middle East Technical University, and I can hardly believe it’s time to say goodbye. Today, I took care of some paperwork and wandered the beautiful campus that shaped my growth. I laid down on Devrim grass, listening to High Hopes.

[Tuğçe Nur Pekçetin @TugceNPekcetin]

Today marks the day The Hobbit was published, and it’s also our 5th wedding anniversary with @serkan3k 💫 We celebrated by listening to @bilkentsymphony’s amazing Lord of the Rings concert. It may not be the fanciest cosplay, but we are representing Tom Bombadil and Goldberry!🎶

Judero is OUT NOW!
(please make this go viral!!!)
It's a handmade stop motion action adventure based on Scottish folklore
We made it over 2.5 years with a small budget and just two people.
It's a true passion project for us, and I hope you like it!

[Tuğçe Nur Pekçetin @TugceNPekcetin]

1/5 Three years ago, on a September day (after months of life uncertainties), something great happened: we met with dear Burcu Ayşen Ürgen @BAUrgen to discuss starting a social robot project. Last Tuesday, another September day, I presented that project as my doctoral thesis!🎓

[Serkan Pekçetin @serkan3k]

Congrats to my dear @TugceNPekcetin 🎉👏 You have made us tremendously proud while earning your well-deserved degree! Both the presentation and the Q&A was classy, too.

[Tuğçe Nur Pekçetin @TugceNPekcetin]

I am so happy and honored! Today, I successfully defended my PhD thesis and became a Doctor of Cognitive Science! I am incredibly grateful to my advisors&jury members for the truly inspiring Q&A session, and the online audience for their interest. So, this is what it feels like!

[Burcu Ayşen Ürgen @BAUrgen]

👩‍🎓Tuğçe Nur Pekçetin @TugceNPekcetin is now a DOCTOR in Cognitive Science! Congrats Tuğçe for the terrific work you have done over the past few years! Well-deserved, it’s time to celebrate 🎉 .
