That would of been great to have mentorship, but I ended up doing it the harder way, Struggling and reading code like a book. I learned a ton though, and its taken a while.I hope to soon provide people with tutorial/walkthrough with 3D

Lol, I mean building a native ios swift app with vuforia was a pain in the butt, since they have NO documentation on their code or any tutorials. Github link here: https://github.com/interactivetech/VuforiaScenekit I h

I think this is a good thing they are not baking AR into the camera like Facebook is doing with the Camera Effects Platform. This allows developers to invent future "camera" apps that could be better to use than the regular camera

For AR, to win, you do not have to be the first one to market to win, its who can make the best platform for developers will win. As an AR developer, previous platforms like Vuforia, ARToolkit, and even Tango are either limiting or very har

Thats awesome! I hope the leadership for the product development curriculum stays as that makes Cornell Tech a really unique experience. They do an amazing job getting companies from all over NYC to advise on our product projects. Also a si

Not a lot unfortunately :(. Cornell Tech organizes a two week trip to the Technion where we interact with various departments, students, and the Israeli startup scene, but they always ask for feedback on how we would like to interact with T

Graduate student at Cornell Tech, amazing program to learn graduate level machine learning and cs topics with a deep dive into product/startup development. I am in the 2 year program, and the program is top notch for only being 5 years

It would be cool to see AR mirrors at stores, but I can see the experience would have to be very thought out so people don't feel they are being watched or make them not feel great about themselves. I can definitely see mirrors for mak

Vuforia is great on the technical side. Their cloud API is responsive and their tracking is strong, but their documentation is terrible. Look up Vuforia Swift to see a starter code on how to use it on iOS. They have well structured examples

Oh, that makes sense, but how do you render the pin in 3D when you see the pin in Augmented Reality. I see your screenshots where you see the pin on google maps and the pin when you view it I augmented reality.

Looks interesting! How do you place the pin so it looks like the pin in placed on the sidewalk/road? I skimmed your code and you were analyzing the image to find buildings?

It depends on what you want to do. Opencv is amazing but it doesn't have easy to do high level stuff. It gives you the tools to implement computer vision systems, but you have to put the pieces together. opencv does not come with model

Get some inspiration from indie hackers.com . I have been wanting to do something similar and there are tons of great advice and wisdom from solo developers building their own businesses.

In my opinion, the new opencv3 book is the way to go. It was released this past January. Learning OpenCV 3: Computer Vision in C++ with the OpenCV Library That's a great book to learn opencv in c++, but you are probably going to pay fo

Please then, enlighten me with your understanding of MR. What do you think are important technical and non-technical problems in MR that I should be looked more into. If you can't offer any constructive input or advice, then your troll

Thanks for the feedback vitovito! That was my reasoning for me to enroll into grad school, so I can go beyond understanding the tools and build cool apps, but to push the state of the field. I feel I am at point in my knowledge where I can

How do I have bias? I have seen many different platforms facilitate AR and how AR has progressed since 2011. How do you even define MR, when Google coins MR for their VR head tracking, but magic leap talk about MR as being able to see in fr

The summary seems to pick the most unique sentences, so maybe LexRank? Amazing though, I've been really wanting a way to skim HN articles quicker, since there is so much volume and you don't want to miss anything Great work!

Hey there! Tldr; There are two divisions of AR in my opinion, Marker based AR and Markerless based AR Marker based AR: Platforms include Vuforia, ARToolKit, awe.js,argon.js Markerless based AR: Platforms include Occipital Structure Sensor,

Amazing work! What was the motivation for this project? Was it that motion graphics tools for web don't exist, or the tools that exist weren't good enough?

Love his work and his current research project ChalkTalk. Dynamic sketches with knowledge embedded in it will completely change how we learn and communicate. Check out his talk : https://youtu.be/nHBAGke3eCU if interested!
