Oh definately. I'd love to use this as a platform to develop a full character story in Unity. Imagine a visual novel in real life. Cosplaying with role playing robots.

Wow, this is really amazing. I imagine a doll would be made with these parts inside. I imagine putting on my AR gear and walking over to the bed to touch my wife. I imagine buying this tech.

I'm glad you updated this thread recently... this is the first time I've seen it.

I love your spine design! It would work great for a neck as well!

We have been brainstorming a way to attach panels for my midsection exoskeleton. Your spine design may work well for me.

I will be following your progress, and may be contacting you in the year coming.

Keep up the great work!!!

An AR mesh overlay would be pretty cool.
While we are making programs, has anyone heard of any good AR glasses? most seem to just be dumb down glasses with speakers and cameras for taking photos.

I've been waiting for the VIVE XR Elite, but it's getting bad reviews. I think because the foam piece against the face is held on with magnets and keeps popping off?

Check it out....

This is so cool ! congrats for the amazing work, I'm working in a non mechanical version of this, trying to turn into life our dolls using AI with AR glasses.
Would be great if we (any user here is welcome) can join forces and share ideas, what do you think?

I'd answer questions for anyone as best I can. Do you have any videos or posts about what you're working on? Is there a video you would like to see me better explain something?

Currently I'm researching what could be the best device for this. Because Quest 2/Pro for example have a passthrough and beside the bad quality, the biggest problem is they don't allow access to that camera, only project some 3D model, AR is not possible.
XReal had a Light version with camera, and they discontinued it.

I hate that. I think it's lame that they want to brag that their device has a camera, but then they don't let you do anything with it unless they say it's okay. So who owns this thing Mark? Me or You.

Anyways, the next thing I want to try is something like this. If I can get face tracking working on this, then BAM!
