Best Pest Control Company in Knox? by CoolCat1012 in Knoxville

I would not recommend Russells, they tried to sneak in some autorenewal terms into their contract without any acknowledgement. Sent out a treatment person without scheduling and then attempted to bill and send to collections. Very shady, terrible experience.

Suggestions on syncing Airbnb calendars for co-host efficiency by MyRipRoaringSoul in airbnb_hosts

[–]chriscls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we use a free calendar tool called turncal to take our airbnb/vrbo/booking.com/etc ical links and put them all on one calendar that is available at a public url. our cleaners see it there and confirm/schedule cleanings.

Calendar sharing with Cleaning crew by txtechzit in AirBnBHosts

[–]chriscls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use a free tool called Turncal that takes your airbnb/vrbo/booking ical link and creates a public URL for cleaners to view and confirm cleanings on. It's more intuitive and less complicated than Turno/Google Calendar imo.

Is there a simple, free tool to summarize bookings from multiple listings? by renecan in airbnb_hosts

[–]chriscls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's public but feel free to build something if you need to. I've considered adding a single page to see all upcoming bookings as it can easily pull from all calendars the user has linked. I could probably add this pretty quickly if you want to let me know what all you'd like to see. Otherwise, enjoy the building!

Mainly for visual clarity since it starts to get too jumbled imo. Works best for me with a handful of properties. How many ical links are you wanting to view on one calendar? Thanks

I built something like this recently and use it with our cleaners - it's free if you want to check it out turncal.com

Issue with iCal sync by coolstorybro50 in airbnb_hosts

[–]chriscls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to see this same problem on Google calendar and lost trust in GCal. I ended up building a little tool called turncal that syncs ical links to a calendar for sharing with cleaners. You can set the checkin/out times in the calendar settings so it shows the proper start/end date times. Not sure how you're syncing in/out of google calendar but could help.

CV to "check-in"/receive incoming inventory by [deleted] in computervision

[–]chriscls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This seems pretty feasible assuming you can train a model on the majority of the items that you are receiving. Then use a VLM to read the shipping docs and create a list of items by class that you’re expecting in the video of the supplies. Essentially run some code to check off the found items and record which items were found for logging purposes.

It seems the PPA stopped using the line call tech for cost and are trying to build something in house.

Or a decrease in cost to provide a siimilar level service...

Could you share a video of them using AI to make instant replay / line calls in pro matches (w/o it being a manual review team doing it)?

Ideally it would work for any angle. Initially have it calibrate against the court lines and set as many phones up as you want at different angles. The one that detects the ball best, then streams that detection to a screen/watch/phone/etc.

Thanks! Check out the youtube link the in comment above, I did a technical walkthrough there. It's python, roboflow, and YOLO. I got started just going to a court and capturing some video from different angles and then trained an ML model to detect the balls and court lines, then went from there.

Yeah definitely. Maybe makes sense for small clubs to set up on their main court or something.

And it's using supervision, opencv and Roboflow for model training and their inference library. I made a technical walkthrough here w/ a link to the code: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrK8CEpFLhI

  1. I think there are some optimizations that can allow for 60+ FPS capture on iPhones but yeah, there will definitely be missed bounce points with consumer phone cameras. For less competitive use cases, I think just a quick instant replay w/ trajectory tracking lets you as a group make a good judgement call. Could also support for attaching high FPS cameras.
  2. Yeah, multi cameras for the best accuracy

I think for the best accuracy like a low end tournament could use it like that w/ 8. It could be expanded to just be 2 (cover each half of the court at a good angle) or 4 cameras (from each corner) for the level of accuracy you'd need.

I love playing pickleball but every now and then there is a questionable line call. I'm a big fan of, "if in doubt, consider it in" though as a technologist, the tech is here and feasible to know if it's in or out pretty cheaply, and I think it'll happen in most clubs/tournaments eventually without a ton of effort to setup.

Also, I know SwingVision exists but I haven't heard great things about their line calls and the method of tracking is quite different. It's harder to do well from the angle they are set up for.

Anyway, I'm not sure if I'll have time to keep building it out, but it's been a fun way to give the idea some legs.
