VR is coming back due to world models. Might not be obvious until next year sometime. Those of you who are VR fans (I have lists) keep the faith. New ways of creating immersive experiences are arriving. I call it the Holodeck. Others call it the Metaverse. My friend @3duaun calls it "AI hallucinated reality." Talking to the kids growing up now (like my son) what a world they are coming of age into.

STRAUSS Toolbox XR is available on #Quest3/3s. The STRAUSS Toolbox XR app transforms your Meta Quest 3/3S into a powerful, professional measurement and planning tool. Designed for craftsmen and ambitious DIY users, the app combines essential functions for efficient work – intuitive, fast, and without the need for additional equipment. #VR 🔗meta.com/experiences/app/256…

That ugly green halo around hair every time someone gets cut out of a green screen is a 30-year-old math problem that traditional keyers can't solve, and a YouTube studio in LA just open-sourced the fix. Edges are hard for one reason. A pixel at the boundary of your subject covers maybe 30% skin and 70% green screen. The camera averages them: recorded RGB is literally 0.3 * skin 0.7 * green. Same physics for motion blur, out-of-focus hair, glass, smoke, fabric. Every translucent pixel is a mix of subject light and background light. Primatte, Keylight, Ultimatte (the workhorse keyers behind basically every Hollywood green screen shot since the 90s) estimate which pixels to keep with a binary mask. Modern "AI roto" tools do the same thing with neural networks predicting the mask. Both throw away the mixed pixel. That's why every cutout you've ever seen has either harsh edges or a green tint in the hair. CorridorKey predicts the actual unmixed foreground RGB plus a linear alpha for every pixel. Given observed pixel = alpha * foreground (1 - alpha) * background, the network solves for foreground and alpha directly. That's what Porter-Duff compositing math has wanted since 1984. The industry has been duct-taping around the missing solver with manual roto for forty years. Outputs are 16/32-bit EXR. Plugs into Nuke, Fusion, and DaVinci Resolve via community ports that appeared within weeks of release. Trained on synthetic rendered data, so dataset cost is essentially zero. Niko Pueringer (one of the two Corridor founders) wrote it. This is the level of tool top VFX shops typically keep proprietary. Corridor put it on GitHub. The gating constraint flipped from algorithm to VRAM. Inference at 2048x2048 needs about 23GB. That's a $2K consumer GPU. A shot that takes a roto artist a full day now runs in under a second on the same hardware kids use to play Cyberpunk.

Hmmm... 👀

@niekvdmaas is this your project. Would love some insights if yes.
