I'm thrilled to share with you my latest research paper (CVPR 2023)! This was a joint effort with my intern at Meta Reality Labs before our team transitioned to GenAI.
Our innovative method, dubbed Avatars Grow Legs (AGRoL), aims to control a 3D avatar's entire body in VR without the need for extra sensors. Typically in VR, your interaction is limited to a headset and two handheld joysticks, leaving out any direct input from your legs. This limitation persists despite the Quest's downward-facing cameras, as they rarely capture the unocludded view of the legs.
To tackle this, we've introduced a novel solution based on a diffusion model. Our model synthesizes the 3D movement of the whole body conditioned solely on the tracking data from the hands and the head, circumventing the need for direct observation of the legs.
Moreover, we've designed AGRoL with an efficient architecture enabling 30 FPS synthsis on a V100 GPU.

Artem Kliuchnikov and his family fled Ukraine just days before the Russian invasion. That hurt tech stocks. For the past few weeks, the 10-year yield has traded between 1.72% and 2%, as traders moved into the bond for safety when Russia headlines were ugly—and out of it when headlines improved. Now, the yield is touching its pandemic-era high. If the yield breaks above that level, that could signal that it’s on a sustainable path higher. Higher long-dated bond yields make future profits less valuable—and many tech companies are valued on the basis of profits forecast for many years in the future. "He has to start being more proactive and to find a real solution to this situation, not stay in standby without interfering. It's a very irresponsible position from the owner of Telegram," she said. Russian President Vladimir Putin launched Russia's invasion of Ukraine in the early-morning hours of February 24, targeting several key cities with military strikes. "For Telegram, accountability has always been a problem, which is why it was so popular even before the full-scale war with far-right extremists and terrorists from all over the world," she told AFP from her safe house outside the Ukrainian capital.
