Image prompt: A premium VR headset sits alone on white marble console in vast empty penthouse, floor-to-ceiling windows showing dark city lights, cold moonlight reflecting in headset lenses, minimalist luxury interior, dramatic shadows, untouched perfection, cinematic composition with bold white sans-serif ‘AR/VR’ text overlay, architectural photography style, blue-grey lighting, pristine isolation

Aerial intelligence with prompts. Moondream segments pools, tennis courts, and even solar panels, with pixel-perfect accuracy. https://x.com/moondreamai/status/1997058204589871395

Moondream’s new segmentation just dropped. Prompt: “dirty laundry items on the bed.” Moondream: pixel-perfect + actually understands the scene. SAM 3: grabs the floor. https://x.com/moondreamai/status/1996001944838832501

Octane 2027 is insanely photorealistic — this is realtime path tracing on a 5090 w/ DLSS. Realtime and “offline” rendering is on a glorious collision course. https://x.com/bilawalsidhu/status/1994784445207892097

Hand tracking gets all the attention in XR, but the real unlock is what you feel when your finger actually touches something. This prototype shows how a single haptic thimble on your fingertip can change the whole experience. Not a glove. Not a full suit. Just a small actuator https://x.com/IlirAliu_/status/1996151860600644008

I really like this idea of uncovering more of a scene as you move the camera. There’s a new aesthetic to it. It’s the first time AI video has felt flexible and truly controllable. The model zero-shots all the items you describe and pairs them with great motion. Whisper Thunder is https://x.com/c_valenzuelab/status/1995539870983266493

This print appears to be happening in midair… a new method of 3D printing: It combines direct ink writing with up-conversion particles-assisted photopolymerization. With this method of printing ceramics, the need for support structures is eliminated. Paper: https://x.com/IlirAliu_/status/1995569849884639713

Wow.. AI assisted keyframe interpolation in the latest release of cascadeur. Define two keyframes manually and get believable animation in between. You can also mix regular, AI and physics-based interpolation – oh and it’s all generated locally: https://x.com/bilawalsidhu/status/1994944476142604435

More inference workloads now mix autoregressive and diffusion models in a single pipeline to process and generate multiple modalities – text, image, audio, and video.

Depth Anything 3 can reconstruct this FPV video in just a few seconds on a A100 🤯 It was not long ago that I used to let agisoft metashape chug all night on a 3d scan, and here we are https://x.com/bilawalsidhu/status/1996354738078752987

VPS or visual positioning system… this is how AR glasses and robots will understand where they are in the real world and know where to go. It’s also how you can spatially annotate reality with cm level accuracy – all using a machine readable model of the world. https://x.com/bilawalsidhu/status/1995959232714473966
