I have built something similar for kids once, also using tensorflow: a game where you control a goal keeper with your body. Optionally kids (ok and adults) can color the goal keeper(https://dibulo.com/world/frutball

Tensorflow.js made it easy and it was quite fun to build. I still use it for breaks, where I want to move a bit and have fun

Back in the late eighties there was a IIRC NewTek video toaster for the Commodore Amiga which was a video / genlock system and there was a kind of interactive demo where you try to hit a ball / play goal using the camera. It's cool to see this type of idea again.

Technically neat, artistically uncanny.

There's been vector based tweening and animation software for a bit an it always comes out looking strange.

It’s that weird androgynous, lifeless, demonic corporate art style all over again.

my secret plan to get HN users into vtubers by making a worse version of live2d with machine learning for no reason is going to make me millions

So soon Simon will have his bike-riding pelican in an animated SVG.

So this pelican svg gimmick isn't actually new or advanced at all, but from 2020 or earlier.
