Inspiration

Looking through the categories for this years hackathon, we came up with an idea that would hit the criteria for all of the categories. We found it as a new thing to challenge ourselves with as we step forward to the future of technology and its love for AI and digital creation.

What it does

Generates, protects, and distributes steampunk-themed digital assets such as art and 3D models using AI while maintaining security through Midnight's privacy blockchain technology. It also comes with an Adobe Express add-on that applies a copper filter to images as well as add steam.

Its key features include:

  • AI-powered asset generation using customized stable diffusion models
  • Real-time steampunk style transfer for existing artwork
  • Blockchain-based ownership verification and tracking
  • Secure marketplace for trading digital assets
  • Adobe Express add-on that applies copper filters and steam effects to images
  • Collaborative creation tools with version control
  • Custom steampunk UI with interactive mechanical elements

Development Stack:

  • Frontend: HTML and CSS
  • Backend: Python and Typescript
  • AI Integration: Hugging Face API for image generation and style transfer
  • Blockchain: Midnight Protocol for security and privacy
  • Database: MongoDB for asset metadata storage
  • Adobe Creative SDK for the Express plugin

Challenges we ran into

  • Combining the front-end with the back-end
  • Using Adobe Express SDK for the first time

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Created a unique and responsive steampunk interface
  • Made a functional AI image generation
  • Learned lots of new technologies as a team

What we learned

  • Learned more about Hugging-Face API
  • Using Cloudflare and hugging face api for the first time
  • Learned more about blockchain technology and generation

What's next for PixelPunkLabs

  • Improve the AI generation quality
  • Add more steampunk filters and effects
  • Enhance blockchain security features
  • Develop more marketplace features
  • Polish the UI animations
