I love my job. We placed a 3D scan of a 2600 year old Lucanian tomb in our studio. Using the Meta Quest Pro and the passthrough API. #photogrammetry #AugmentedReality #archaeology #History

Just ran real-time object detection on the Quest 3 using YOLO Unity. No cloud, no PC—just standalone CV magic in my kitchen. #MetaQuest3 #ComputerVision #YOLO #XRdev #Sentis #AI

Exploring ancient history with technology, creating brainwave driven visual experiences, recording motion capture sequences, creating AI conversational agents: these are just some of the research projects we do at the MRC Studio. Interested in collaborating? Drop me a line.

Doing some mocap tests with our Captury Live Markerless Mocap System at the Durham College MRC Studio. Our system uses active optic sensors and AI algorithms to capture body/hand motion. #mocap #research #AI

I was going to submit this scan of my vintage watch for @NVIDIAAIDev's #InstantNeRFVR contest, but chose to focus on VR environments. It goes to show that Instant NeRFs are also great for smaller objects, even when the photos are taken with a budget smartphone.

@NVIDIAAIDev I did a quick cleanup of my archaeological Instant NeRF and recorded the process! It looks a lot cleaner than it did yesterday. Looking forward to making more Instant NeRFs using my old photogrammetry data! #InstantNeRFVR #VR #Archaeology
