Touch Grass AI: Offline Outdoor Companion & Open-Source Species Identifier

说明与用途

Touch Grass AI 是一个离线优先的 Web 应用，使用 ViT、MobileNetV3、AST、Leaflet 和 OpenStreetMap 进行植物和鸟类识别、路线规划和观察日志记录。

问题

Users want to identify plants and birds while hiking or gardening without relying on cellular data or paid cloud APIs, and they also want to reduce screen time.

结果

The application enables offline plant and bird identification, route planning, and species journaling, reducing reliance on cloud services and encouraging outdoor engagement.

工作流

• Capture plant image with the web client
• Send image to /api/classify-image for ViT/MobileNetV3 inference
• Receive species prediction and display result
• Record audio with the web client
• Send audio to /api/classify-audio for AST inference
• Receive bird‑call prediction and display result
• Use Leaflet to build or view routes
• Export routes as GPX
• Log observations in local offline journal

证据

Touch Grass AI is an open-source, offline-first outdoor companion designed to help people reconnect with nature while reducing unnecessary screen time.

来源

The application is organized into two main parts: 1. Client-side experience 2. Backend inference and APIs

来源

Vision Transformer (ViT) and MobileNetV3 are the proposed vision models for classifying plant-related images

来源

The Audio Spectrogram Transformer (AST) is used in the planned audio-classification pipeline for analyzing recorded sounds and supporting bird-call recognition.
