Interesting tech but there’s zero explanation of the actual application, so it’s all a little abstract.

A little detail in the otherwise great write up! I'm curious too.

the code example of vision framework, and the links in "Software Resources" section are enough I guess, you can feed them to an LLM to get a full application if you are too lazy to figure out by yourself
