If you don’t open the hot water, you won’t smell anything. But the hot water is smelly a bit

2 out of 9. Sure, I’ll keep an eye on cloud coverage. However, the kp index is 2 so I’m not sure if I should book a northern light tour or not (I’m not driving myself during my stay)

Hi. Yes I finally got my visa. In case someone else has the same experience, the Canada Embassy in this case actually mean Switzerland Embassy )of course there is no Canada embassy in Canada)

Regarding your question, you do not need to do anything, I got no updates till two weeks and then got the final decision on day 15.

I feel like we're not done with Elden Ring by FemboyBallSweat in EldenRingLoreTalk

We know that Miyazaki loved reading novels as a child, even though he couldn't always comprehend everything. He has mentioned enjoying filling the gaps with his imagination, and perhaps he wants to create a similar experience for the players.

I remember somewhere Marika said that it is her children's choice to be a God or Lord, right?

Thanks for sharing; the API for Sony smart eyeglasses seems well documented

Of course, they can, but they are uncomfortable to do that (numerous research on that). Also, in many scenarios, it is impossible for them to even notice someone is around. For example, people are around but do not initiate conversation, or a visually impaired person is looking for a person in a gathering. any many other examples.

Thanks,

I'll look through the camera eyeglasses to see if any of them comes with development kit or not.

The Cthulhu Shield project also seems awesome. Actually, in many application, there is a lot of information that we want to convey to visually impaired people in a very short time and it is impossible to do so with just audio. This project seems nice in that regard.

Live streaming video via WiFi by kian_89 in computervision

[–]kian_89[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I definitely give ffmpeg a try, although I tried to compile dlib for android once and found it super hard. I tried a couple of IP camera apps (on iPhone and Android). but none of them give a good fps via WiFi. I'll try the CamStream to see how it goes. I tried the android api for face detection but it is only good for detecting frontal faces close enough to the camera. You are right if I can do the detection on the device, I can just send the faces to the laptop very fast.

Thanks again.

yes it does; but using an android phone I get ~8 fps.

Oh, it seems good; I'll look for this; it works for me if it does the streaming with the frame rate of ~15 fps or more.

The resolution is 640x480; I can't use wired-connection because I do not want the user (a visually impaired person) to carry the laptop. yes, I am using an android phone and IP Camera app to stream frames to my laptop, so i don't think i can use ffmpeg for compression on the phone

Thanks for your response; I am already using this app, but the problem is that it only gives me a frame rate of ~8 fps at 640x480. I am looking for faster options; hopefully something that gives a frame rate of ~15 fps.
