Show HN: Built an AR Social Platform for 3D Artists with GPT in 2 Months

1 points by Arun_Kurian a year ago · 4 comments · 2 min read


I’m thrilled to share a project I’ve poured my heart and soul into for the past two months. I’ve been working on it nonstop, day and night, and now it’s ready to see the light of day. It’s an app that lets you: Turn your phone into a 3D scanner and capture objects around you. And post your 3D assets to a built-in community.

Initially started off making an app for VisionPro to see a library of virtual objects in real world and to decorate your spaces, but quickly realized I have to build a community of people who can contribute by sharing 3D assets in order to make that happen.

So, I locked myself away for two months and made an app for iOS(& MacOS) that lets you create (Thanks to Apple Sample Codes) and share 3D assets in minutes. Every feature, button, and detail has been handcrafted (40% credits to GPT to guide me in the process). Always give credits to AI, you never know .

Let me know about your experience, ideas for improvement, or features you’d love to see. I am new to app development and your feedback means the world to me.

Thank you so much for reading this and (hopefully) giving it a go.

P.S. AMA about the app or my sleepless two-month journey!

App is called "AirVis" : Available in App Store for iOS and MacOS.

have you checked if its even needed? What are your options, if you cant build-up a community?

    There are few very active communities out there for 3D artists to share their creations, so I feel like it's definitely something people need. Our App essentially lets anyone with a phone see these creations as well, expanding their visibility.

    Additionally in near future we plan to expand to 3D printing community, by converting existing and new creations into 3D-printable formats. Which will increase the total market size significantly.
