Show HN: Mukbang 3D – Turn short food videos into interactive 3D models
mukba.ngRecord a short video of food, it gets reconstructed into a 3D model using photogrammetry. Viewers can spin and zoom the model while the original video plays behind it.
Pose tracking lets me project 3d effects onto the video like the glow in the demo. Why food? It's static, and AI 3D models do not make food that I want to eat. Using photogrammetry means that high quality reconstructions of real food look tasty - it's an easy qualitative metric for me. Previously the app only produced 3D models and threw away the original video, but incorporating the underlying videos both shows off to new users what type of content they're supposed to record (i.e. a 1 second video of a darkly lit pizza box is NOT going to produce good content), and it makes the output shareable content.
