As if it were an episode of Black Mirror, startup West Labs working on an app that can play memories Anytime.

To do this, the company is promoting software that superimposes images exactly where they happened. How does this happen?

Simple app but essential

West Labs brags about this app because “it will allow users to access precious moments when they remember them.”

According to Wist’s website, the process seems relatively simple: users can use the app to convert regular video captured on their smartphones into a 3D representation and then play it back on the spot, either in a web browser, on a phone, or in a virtual environment. . reality glasses.

“During capture, we store color, depth, device position, audio, and scene information,” said Wist co-founder Andrew McHugh. “Depth is determined using LiDAR sensors on iPhone and iPad Pro models.”

Black mirror

As several Twitter users pointed out, the demo is eerily reminiscent of an earlier episode. Black mirror“The whole story is about you”, in which a man in love reproduces memories a recent dinner is taken off an implant in his brain as he tries to figure out if his wife is cheating on him.

Unlike sci-fi examples, Wist users are at least in control memories they are recording, and that, at least for now, is what matters.
