Hi HN! 10 years of product and engineering experience. I'm looking for technical product management opportunities in health/fin/urban -tech. I've been through several company and product cycles and know how to bring new products to market and scale them.

Thanks for all the hard work and congrats on your launch!

I will definitely check this service out for a side project I'm working on that combines basketball and AI (https://www.myshotcount.com/)

Yup, I saw your form submission through our site! I reached out to you over email, I'm confident we can help out :)

Congrats on the launch, Andrew! I'm curious to learn more about your experience in mobile 3D reconstruction. Did you publish anything? I'm curious because I'm working in the 3D reconstruction space as well.

Didn't publish anything. Mainly, we focused on making 3D reconstruction practical for B2B use cases.

It's interesting, because I personally see the idea of commercializing academic research to be well-intentioned, but a bit more difficult than it sounds.

Thanks for sharing

Apparently I'm bad at drawing penises.

Since I can't play basketball with people, I built an app that helps me play basketball with myself. It uses object detection to identify me shooting and the ball going in or not and then creates a heatmap in real-time. Sort of like fitbit for basketball. I had to do some labelling myself, but it didn't take too long and it's working! I try to beat my shooting percentage from the day before. I put it on the Apple App Store to start and I'll build an android version next.

You can see a live demo here: https://www.myshotcount.com/

This is so cool! It's been a while since I'd looked at Homecourt[0], but it looks like they've expanded quite beyond the shot tracking. Cool that you're competing against Steve Nash hah

This is super neat though, looking forward to following along. Would love to sign up for a newsletter if yas had one.

Thanks, man. I built it, showed some friends, and then learned there was a competitor, but that's cool. The world needs more than one and for some reason they don't offer anything to the billions of android users.

Based on my conversations with users, shot tracking is most used feature by far. There are a bunch of other services that help with dribbling [0] and drills [1].

Very cool! You did quite well in the video too, was that one take or multiple? :)

It's a continuous take, but probably a couple were tossed before that one ;-)

super cool! I love the markers on the court. Super clear.

Thanks! Trying to make it as simple as possible.

For people interested in identifying plants, the PlantCLEF dataset is a great start. Here's the link: https://www.imageclef.org/PlantCLEF2019

Implement a simple image classifier built with fast.ai and you can go quite far!

I believe it is to be used for research only.

Yes, exactly. :-)
