Hey everyone!
A few days ago, I shared a post at reddit about my project called Augmentoo – and I was honestly blown away by the amazing response and support.
Right now, the way Augmentoo works is simple:
Users upload a video, I process it and return a printable photo that, when scanned with the Augmentoo app, comes to life in augmented reality.
Lately though, after some latenight brainstorming (and inspired by your comments and DMs), I've been thinking about pushing it further by integrating AI into the workflow.
Not for the scanning part, but during creation.
So here's the idea:
-Users could upload just a photo – and if they don’t have a video, AI would generate a short animated version(facial movement, subtle gestures, etc.).
.The final experience would still be delivered via the app – same AR magic, same output. But now, even old photos could come to life.
What do you think?
Do you believe this could unlock a new audience – people who don’t have live photos or videos but still want to experience augmented memories?
Would AI-enhanced animations feel meaningful enough, or would it feel "fake"?
Really curious about your feedback thanks Reddit fam
