So I’m building suit-up, which is a website that should let you overlay Iron Man onto you. Started this cuz I keep seeing ppl building iron man and spiderman stuff on my insta, and cuz I’m not skilled enough to do that I decided this would be the next best thing.

I started with Python, except then realized that building a tool that runs an AI model and renders 3D models in parallel is gonna suck and kill my laptop. After some research I found that I could either do this in the web (as there are libraries that let me do this efficiently), or I could spend hours struggling with C++… the choice was pretty easy honestly

Anyways, I’ve now gotten a cameo working with an overlay of the landmarks that are detected by the mediapipe model I’m using. Had to use Gemini to understand the docs for the model as they’re cryptic as heck and incredibly overcomplicated. Next up I’m gonna see how I can render a 3D model, and then imma try to implement that as an overlay. Got a long way to go, but I think it’s gonna be cool

Btw, there is actually a cameo but I made it transparent for the screenshot cuz it’s still too early for a face reveal lol

You can try my really rough demo here if you’re interested. All feedback is appreciated, but plz keep in mind this is still in early dev stages
