Last weekend we won a big Lllama 3 Hackaton!

We built a smart glasses from scratch using off-the-shelf parts in $20 and it runs entirely on Open Source networks.

This kind of blown up everywhere - now everyone knows what we have done and we have 1500+ of preorders in the first day. Gizmodo took small interview, virtually anyone i am talking two knows about our glasses. I have built firmware and base app (everything up to LLM) and guys benchmarked different llms and picked the best approach.

What we found is that Moondream v2 + Llama 3 is capable to run similar to what OpenAI demonstrated. It can sense what's happening around, answering questions. You can get faster than realtime responses via Groq API for Llama 70B, TTS is also quite fast. STT is also 100x of realtime. Ofc openai is much better at this, but hacked in the weekend solution also works.

My goal getting street creds in bay area is slowly working!

Got Google Glass Enterprise 2 for prototyping of OpenGlass!

Google discounted them year ago, but a lot of vendors has them in stock and therefore cost is now ~$250 with fancy italian frame. Before they were like $1500 for google part only.

And they run fully unlocked android!

My first audio pre-training finished!

Thankfully my small cluster of 4090 finished pre-training of my audio foundational model! It took about 30 days to finish. This model is akin to original GPT (not chat one) in essence that it is not really that useful without finetuning, but you can finetnue it to do denoising, speech enhancement, speaker separation, text-to-speech tasks. All this tasks are very very important for AI Wearables and every single company i have talked too are struggling with it.

Me, when i can't find what i can't build or what to learn.

Any recommendations?

SuperVoice Enhance

My new model for speech enhance and denoising. This model processes noisy or damaged audio extracts high quality voice. Should work with most languages out of the box.
