Show HN: Lego Brick Scanner – open-source Boilerplate

I saw Brickit on HN friday https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27693560 and played with replicating the technology this week-end just for fun.

It renders virtual legos stacks in a pybullet environment and generate synthetic data ready to be played with neural networks blocks.

I have compiled a pybullet ready ~14000 Lego bricks dataset that may be useful to you.

Pybullet in non-GUI can handle ~3000 simultaneous bricks.

> This project is a tool to generate synthetic 3d scenes for toying with bricks registration.

I'm out of the lego brick scanning loop. What is "bricks registration"?

Next step is to take a picture or 3D model of some object and come up with a lego version of it.

new idea for a lego app: Dump all your legos on the floor, take a video / photos of the pile. (nicely spread around). App should create a complete inventory of all your bricks. From there, generate list of sets which can be built, etc...
