I'm curious about most things, but I keep returning to sounds and codes. I love to travel, sharing and exploring ideas with people.

    that sounds about right. maybe i'm biased because i work with computer vision a lot, but never robotics. so everything in this video looks incredibly familiar, but none of it makes me think "robotics" except the few that are first-person perspectives.

    very nice to see this as a compilation. the title feels a little misleading, because "computer vision" doesn't always imply "robot" -- "robot" makes me think "electromechanical" or at least "embodied computer", when in reality most of these videos come from fixed surveillance systems, or are analyzing media like tv/movies.

    some interesting aesthetic themes: color choices tend toward high contrast saturated primaries (easy colors to code), almost no text (it's never descriptive, only enumerative), trails are used to show history, ellipses and rectangle/bounding boxes are used as placeholders for complex shapes...

    this is so good. i love that you turned this into a sort of 'wizard of oz' performance.

    you really have to post a translation of the portuguese at 1:15 :)
