Just bizarre. | GistNoesis wrote: | I saw Brickit on HN friday | https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27693560 and played with | replicating the technology this week-end just for fun. | | It renders virtual legos stacks in a pybullet environment and | generate synthetic data ready to be played with neural networks | blocks. | | I have compiled a pybullet ready ~14000 Lego bricks dataset that | may be useful to you. | | Pybullet in non-GUI can handle ~3000 simultaneous bricks. | ChrisArchitect wrote: | ha! crazy. Did you share this over in that Brickit thread | there? Sure some would be interested | nemesisj wrote: | I am working on a LEGO sorter project, and getting access to | labeled data to train my neural network is a real pain.
