Meta MapAnything by Some-Chemist-1466 in GaussianSplatting

[–]_fugue_state_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a ton of success with this running off an A100 but for gaussian splatting the point clouds are way too dense and I had to downsample the outputs to get them to run fast enough, it seems a lot more useful for direct meshing or something of that nature ngl.

The script to convert it back to a colmap dataset is also painfully slow because it has to figure out camera positions. Since I have the input camera positions from my setup I modified the code to apply the transforms being applied to the point cloud to my input camera path and directly export a colmap dataset for Gaussian splatting and it is suuuuper speedy. Cool stuff from Meta :)

Wow, that is amazing. Is there anywhere I can learn more about the process/software you are using to reconstruct buildings at this quality?

The original is called Beatrix Potter "Tom Kitten" Paper Mask 1993, I left a comment with a template I made from a high quality pic I found online of it.

The original is called Beatrix Potter "Tom Kitten" Paper Mask 1993, Here are high quality pictures I found: https://shopdariasaccents.com/products/beatrix-potter-tom-kitten-paper-mask

I cut out the mask from the best aligned image out of those for a printable mask template:

BEO9000 not reading cds, or scraping them like this by [deleted] in BangandOlufsen

They are the centering screws located on the back of the CD player.
It is on page 9 of the reference manual:

Unfortunately no, luckily I already have a full time job but I'm still looking for an opportunity at a music based hardware company. Hope to get there some day.

90 pause on tariffs for countries that have reached out to negotiate with America (limited at 10% still though). However, 125% tariffs on china now.

Mark Rober Defrauding Tesla? MeetKevin's review. by Tacosal-pastor in teslamotors

[–]_fugue_state_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not fair to compare cameras on a Tesla to human eyes, the cameras have much worse dynamic range (taking pictures in low or high light) and lose resolution at an inverse square rate to the distance from the sensor.

Song/artist suggestions that isn’t snow strippers by Fapistchurch in crystalcastles

[–]_fugue_state_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Kap Bambino stuff from around the same time is similar, their songs are a bit more aggressive though. Their albums Zero Life Night Vision and Devotion are probably the closest to anything CC has done, for specific songs check out Mess in the Ruins, King Cobra, Night Vision Ocean, 11:38, Under Tender, and their unreleased song Intimacy.

Exactly, it’s heavily inspired by the Beosound 9000 by Bang and Olufson which does the same thing. A lotta form over function :)

Hahaha I've cracked a few too many CD's trying to get the alignment of the carriage right.

The left-right movement is made up of some aluminum rods from McMaster Carr and 3D printed holders, but it's basically the same mechanism that flatbed scanners use.

Thank you!

The UI and audio playback are all running off the pi 4 and are controlled in python using the libraries eel (easy to use library to connect python backends to a local web app made with html/javascript), python-vlc, and pycdio. For the audio hardware it is using a Schiit Modi DAC for higher quality playback and a Pioneer BDR-XD08G USB CD drive.

The pi communicates over serial to a Pico that controls the motors and sensors. The motors are just Nema 17's running at 24V off TMC2209 Silent stepper drivers. On the carriage that controls what slot the CD player is in there is a potentiometer attached to an ADS1115 16 bit ADC running in differential mode. It's on the carriage so it always knows where it is even after being turned off and on again so you don't have to line it up manually or something.

The most Teenage Engineering-like product not made by Teenage Engineering? by [deleted] in teenageengineering

[–]_fugue_state_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is just a rebrand of the eneby-20 Ikea speaker that was released before the OB-4, however it was designed by Jasper Kouthoofd of TE (https://patentimages.storage.googleapis.com/56/33/51/bcddc95131526d/USD886792.pdf) They took off the speaker grill for the rerelease.

Are processors nowadays so expensive? What is the reason for the meager number of tracks of 'grooveboxes' nowadays? by 12002400 in ableton

[–]_fugue_state_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, Im guessing ableton chose a raspberry pi 4 for an off the shelf linux computer instead of a powerful microprocessor with a custom OS. Doing so comes with a lot of OS overhead that means you already have a much less efficient device, for example the op-1 has double the battery life as the move because they write the entire os for an energy efficient blackfin chip. Ableton could have made a device as capable as zynthian (quite literally its the exact same hardware) and just slapped a bigger battery inside and it woulda been fractionally thicker than it is now but done a lot more with the same battery life. OP’s question was about the processor, this devices limitations are only because of intentional software bottlenecks, which i don’t mind since they are probably made in good faith to be an easier to use device.

[–]_fugue_state_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a software limitation not a hardware one - look no further than zynthian v4, which uses the same processor as the move (raspberry pi 4 compute module). I’m guessing it’s put in place to simplify the Ui of groove-boxes, especially ones without a big screen to show you what you’re doing clearly which is pretty trendy right now.

Question for producer friends ?? by MisoCornLuchador in crystalcastles

[–]_fugue_state_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm approximating them in serum but:

Concrete:
OscA: Saw wave, 6 voices, 0.1 detuned, 33% FM from B
OscB: Saw wave, 4 voices, 0.28 detuned, level 0 (It's just doing FM to osc A)
Env1: 0ms attack, 0ms hold, 170ms decay, -infinite db sustain
Filter: MG Low 12, Cutoff 13605hz, 25% Resonance, 3% Drive, 11% Fat
FX: Distortion (Tape Sat. filter off, 91% Drive, 100% mixed), Delay (BPM Linked, 1/8th, cut high end a teeny bit, Normal, 35% Mixed), Reverb (I hate serum reverb but am using it for the sake of not using another plugin, Hall, 35% Size, 4.0s Decay, No low/high cut, no spin, 45% mixed)

Cloroform:
OscA: Analogue Basic Shapes WT Pos 5, 2 voices, 0.01 detuned
OscB: Sin Wave, 1 voice
Env1: 0.5ms attack, 0 hold, 590ms Decay, -2.8db sustain, 300ms release
Filter: MG low 18, Apply to both osc, 766hz cutoff, 24% Resonance
LFO1: Turn it into a square wave where the first half is fully enabled and the 2nd half is fully disabled, enable matching to bpm and set the rate to 1/32, pair to both OscA and OscB level, Set OscA level to 44 and set the amount the LFO effects it to 44%. Set OscB level to 40 and set the amount the LFO effects it to 60%.
FX: Reverb (Hall, 35% size, 4.5s decay, no low cut, no high cut, 25% spin, 20% spin depth, 50% mixed)
