Studio Weebly

Google Glass that sends pictures it takes to a Raspberry Pi and then uses stable diffusion to anime-ify the image and sends it to a Discord server.

Inspiration

We were inspired to create a wearable that allowed easy access to a stable diffusion instance.

What it does

Take a picture, anime-ifies it and then sends the results to our Discord server. The wearables include the Google Glass, first edition wearable glasses from Google that can take pictures and connect to Wi-Fi, and the M'Lady Fedora is a fedora we made that is meant to have a camera attached to it and it would do an analogous thing [take a picture when the hat is touched/tipped, send a request to the Discord bot via the Raspberry Pi].

How we built it

Frantically, in a Monster energy fueled haze.

Challenges we ran into

  • Issues with the Discord bot API.
  • Portability of the M'Lady fedora.
  • Getting images off the Google Glass in real-time.
  • Lack of capable hardware for the AI .
  • Raspberry Pi camera and network issues

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Combining new and old technology effectively.
  • Creating a functional proof-of-concept demo and prototype.
  • Ease-of-use for the user.
  • Accessibility.

What we learned

  • Discord.py > Discord.js
  • Why Google Glass was unsuccessful initially.
  • Making hats is hard.
  • Sleep and food help a lot with being productive.

What's next for Studio Weebly

A local instance of the Stable Diffusion AI. Creating the M'Lady fedora V2 (not everyone has access to a Google Glass).
