Hey XR, AI devs, bookmark this ⭐=> if you have a project idea for @Meta's $𝟏.𝟓 𝐌 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐨𝐥, but don’t know how to speed up your sprint in the final 2-week stage of the competition.
Here is an amazing condensed resource for the community, now…
Back from an incredible week in Barcelona at Unite! So much happened I gotta break out the emoji bullets:
🏟️ Shared the main stage with @Dilmerv
🧑💻 Met hundreds of inspiring devs
🥷 Mentored tons of awesome projects at @SensAIHackademy
🥘 Enjoyed way too many tapas
Video…
I love that @huggingface designed Reachy to be adorable and cartoony.
The voice in this video doesn’t match the character AT ALL however. Quite the disconnect, unnecessarily so?
Day 2 of the SensAI hackathon in beautiful Barcelona.
A shame and a privilege at the same time to spend the entire day indoors while its 20C and sunny outside 😁
