RuView

ruvnet/RuView · ★ 98.4K

RuView turns ordinary WiFi signals into a spatial-intelligence sensor — it detects presence, measures breathing and heart rate, tracks motion and falls, and even estimates body pose through walls, using Channel State Information (CSI) captured by cheap ESP32 boards, with no cameras or wearables.

+29

ultralytics

ultralytics/ultralytics · ★ 62.6K

Ultralytics YOLO is a family of state-of-the-art computer vision models (YOLO26, YOLO11, YOLOv8, etc.) covering object detection, instance segmentation, semantic segmentation, image classification, pose estimation, oriented object detection, depth estimation, and multi-object tracking in video.

Motion2MixamoRig

MaxLiu22/Motion2MixamoRig · ★ 1.2K

Motion2MixamoRig takes a video (or a still photo) of one person and transfers that motion/pose onto an Adobe Mixamo-rigged 3D character, producing preview videos and a skinned .glb file you can drop into Blender or Unity.

+11

X-AnyLabeling

CVHub520/X-AnyLabeling · ★ 10.7K

A free cross-platform desktop app for AI-assisted annotation of text, image, video, and multimodal data — manual labeling tools plus built-in deep learning models that pre-label or batch-annotate, with multi-format export.

ControlNet
34.1Klllyasviel/ControlNet · Python
ControlNet is a neural network structure that adds extra conditions to diffusion models like Stable Diffusion: instead of a text prompt alone, you steer generation with an edge map, depth map, pose skeleton or scribble. This repo is the official implementation.
5
cvat
16.9Kcvat-ai/cvat · Python
CVAT is an open-source, self-hosted data annotation platform for building labeled datasets from images, video, and 3D point clouds, used for computer vision and visual AI projects.
6
tfjs-models
14.8Ktensorflow/tfjs-models · TypeScript
A collection of pretrained machine learning models ported to TensorFlow.js, covering vision, audio, text, and general utility tasks, ready to use directly in browser or Node.js projects.
7
yolov7
14.2KWongKinYiu/yolov7 · Jupyter Notebook
This is the official PyTorch implementation of YOLOv7, a real-time object detection model that achieved new state-of-the-art speed/accuracy results using a technique the authors call 'trainable bag-of-freebies'.
8
AnimatedDrawings
12.8Kfacebookresearch/AnimatedDrawings · Python
This is Facebook Research's code for the paper 'A Method for Animating Children's Drawings of the Human Figure' — it takes a drawing of a human-like character and animates it using motion capture data.

magic-animate
10.9Kmagic-research/magic-animate · Python
This is the official codebase for 'MagicAnimate' (CVPR 2024), a diffusion-model method that animates a reference human image according to a motion sequence to produce temporally consistent video.
11
X-AnyLabeling
10.7KCVHub520/X-AnyLabeling · Python
A free cross-platform desktop app for AI-assisted annotation of text, image, video, and multimodal data — manual labeling tools plus built-in deep learning models that pre-label or batch-annotate, with multi-format export.
12
freemocap
10.5Kfreemocap/freemocap · TypeScript
FreeMoCap is a free, open-source motion capture system that uses ordinary cameras (not expensive marker suits) to let researchers, educators, and hobbyists capture human movement in 3D.

Depth-Anything-3
6.5KByteDance-Seed/Depth-Anything-3 · Python
Depth Anything 3 (DA3) is a foundation model from ByteDance Seed that predicts spatially consistent geometry — depth, camera poses, even 3D Gaussians — from arbitrary visual inputs, with or without known camera poses.
14
ABot-Recon
1.4Kamap-cvlab/ABot-Recon · Python
ABot-Recon is a streaming 3D reconstruction system: feed it a video stream and it recovers the camera trajectory plus a 3D point cloud, using only a fixed 12-frame local context instead of persistent long-range memory.
15
