StrideQuest: Touch Grass, With a Little Help From On-Device AI
Описание и применение
StrideQuest — это локальный PWA‑приложение, которое превращает прогулку в мини‑поход, используя модели машинного обучения в браузере для распознавания природных объектов и хранит данные локально, чтобы поощрять реальное взаимодействие с окружающей средой.
Задача
Users spend excessive screen time; need an app that encourages outdoor activity while still leveraging AI for discovery.
Результат
StrideQuest demonstrates that open‑weight models and web standards can power a privacy‑first, local‑first outdoor scavenger hunt that rewards physical exploration instead of screen time.
Рабочий процесс
- Select a quest from the dashboard
- Step outside and pause the phone to photograph a target item
- Use the camera viewfinder to capture an image
- The in‑browser AI model classifies the image and suggests matches
- Save the observation to the local field journal
- Earn XP and unlock badges as you complete expeditions
- Review expedition history and telemetry offline
Доказательства
StrideQuest is a local-first outdoor scavenger-hunt PWA for the DEV Hacktoberfest Week 1 Touch Grass challenge.
All field observations, geographic metrics, and raw image blobs are stored client-side in IndexedDB, while interface configurations live in localStorage.
The vision pipeline runs entirely in-browser using Transformers.js v3 and ONNX Runtime Web.
The model is a generalized ImageNet-1K classifier, not a specialized taxonomic or botanical authority.
