How we built it

The software employs generative AI to create virtual avatars and utilizes Snapchat's API for geolocation recognition in photographs. It integrates AR technology to guide users in capturing images. Finally, it processes these images with generative AI to seamlessly blend them, enabling users to virtually coexist and take photos with their past selves or friends, transcending time in one place.

Challenges we ran into

Facing challenges in time management and multitasking, especially with unfamiliar features, we encountered unexpected issues like the sudden closure of the Google Maps API. Swiftly, we had to find an alternative for obtaining the 3D map.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

In a constrained timeframe, we accomplished the creation of a short film and demo, showcasing our expertise in storytelling, workflow design, user flow, and interactive prototypes.

What we learned

We gained valuable insights into teamwork and time management. Additionally, we seized the opportunity to explore and learn about cutting-edge technologies such as Meshy, Bezi, Unity interaction, and 8th Wall.
