This was our first year at Web Summit Rio, the most important technology and innovation event in Rio de Janeiro, and it was a great tech fusion encounter. 👩💻 More than 1000 people visited our booth, and more than 300  had immersive experiences with Apple Vision Pro, where you could explore the Amazonas, drive a car, or try on some outfits. During the event, Sebastian Miserendino, our CTO for Latin America, participated in a panel discussion on the power of artificial intelligence catalyzing change in multiple sectors and industries. Here's a little summary of how we lived #WebSummitRio! 👇 P.S.: We also hosted the after-party!

Another experiment with Hand tracking and poses. What if didn't have to reach for your tools? Just flash a pose and your hand turned into what you needed? Project 3 of #XRBootcamp's one week prototype sprints using #Meta's Presence platform.

The power of #opensource. Spend $25, do some #DIY assembly and have a smart glass add on for any pair of glasses. Who needs the $299 Rayban/Meta glasses? Ironically, the LLM used is Llama3 which Meta open sourced a few weeks back. https://lnkd.in/ginGN5Ua You can read some reflections on why Meta opensourced Llama3 at https://lnkd.in/gSmigkAC

Hello People :) Absolutely thrilled to share that our team has emerged as the 2nd place winners of the intense 24-hour MARVEL HERO QUEST hackathon organised by Microsoft Student Chapter VIT-AP and Null (InfoSec) Chapter - VIT-AP ! 🎉 It was an exhilarating day filled with innovation, collaboration, and a whole lot of stress. Massive kudos to my team Kashish Goel Preksha Sangal Anushka Chaudhary and Prerna Jasti for their unwavering dedication, tireless effort, and brilliant minds ! We worked on Augmented Reality (AR) Shopping Experience: a mobile app that uses AR to enhance the online shopping experience, allowing users to visualise products in their own space before purchasing, from furniture placement to trying on clothes , accessories virtually. Also we chose IRONMAN as our superhero - one of the greatest minds in the world of Marvel. WHY IRON MAN? In Iron Man movies, Tony Stark uses an advanced AR HUD to interact with information and holographic projections. This concept can inspire an AR shopping experience where users can virtually try on or visualise products in their real-world environment. For example, users could see how accessories or clothes look on them using AR. This victory is a testament to the power of teamwork, resilience, and the unwavering pursuit of excellence. As we celebrate this triumph, let's continue to push the boundaries of innovation, challenge ourselves, and strive for even greater heights!

Just saw that Meetup was acquired by Bending Spoons. This is the same company that acquired Evernote https://lnkd.in/gH2TtMcg For me, Meetup is the epitome of platform capture. I won't use it. Luma is what I use, but just for RSVP / attendance, & I can export as needed.
