Inspiration
The knowledge that web3 is not just a single concept but the converge of 3 technologies i.e, 3D tech, Decentralized tech and Crypto tech and the awareness that Internet Computer can provide solution to web3 led me to do a PoC application and supernova hackathon seemed to be just the right impetus to test this hypothesis.
What it does
The app Deadly introduces the story of 22 of the most deadly who return to life in a virtual environment. It enables logged in users of the internet computer to check the advances of computer vision and metaverse possibilities in the browser.
How we built it
This project integrates a number of great individual projects, to note of significance are listed below:
Credits:
- Three JS link
- Man and Mask link
- TensorFlow JS link and MindAR link
- Microverse Builder link
- Internet Computer link & Client Auth Demo link by [Kyle Peacock] for Internet Identity integration
- Audio Swamp Bacon link
- Suggestions from Sai Radhika Mangipudi
- Support from Walker Keane
- The free and open source web
Challenges we ran into
- Issues were faced with Internet Identity login from a VMWare workstation.
- Canister deployment and slowdown issues due to project sizes.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Delivered the first proof of concept original idea on a web3 integration project.
What we learned
web3 integration is possible and internet computer makes it easy.
What's next for Deadly
With the right leverage, this project can be elevated from a Proof of Concept to an app that can be used to
Build the right metaverse [by refactoring parts of the app to use Rust.]
Introduce NFTs inside the project.
Live Audio/ Video streaming integration using WebRTC tech.
Be a part of the future of the web3 story, the building blocks for which are just being written and the story is far from complete.
Would like to explore future ideas based upon below fundamental understanding
Websites may be written in javascript but webbrowser is still written in C/C++ or Rust. Former is for mass adoption whereas the latter is the hidden underlying substrate. The technologies for mass adoption and for high performance always coexist. One is for ease and the other is for speed. It's not a A versus B, but it is A+ B. Its a positive sum game.
Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this hackathon. The learnings from it are immense.
