Introduction Dogs communicate a lot-just not in words. How they tilt their head, shake their neck, scratch an itch, drink water, or suddenly sprint toward the door often carries more health and behavioral information than their bark. At Hoomanely, we’ve always believed that the next leap in pet health
AI
Introduction Image similarity search is one of the most versatile and widely used techniques in modern computer vision. Whether you're identifying duplicate images, powering search engines, detecting tampering, or performing lightweight recognition tasks on edge devices, the idea remains the same: convert images into numerical representations and measure
AI
Most teams add AI the same way they add any new feature: ship a model, wire an endpoint, move on. A few months later, you’re juggling three versions of the “scoring service”, five subtly different summarizers, and a bundle of feature flags nobody fully trusts. Changing one model feels
AI
Introduction Large language models are only as good as the information they can retrieve. As enterprise knowledge bases grow into millions of documents, traditional Retrieval‑Augmented Generation (RAG) systems begin to crack - not because the models are weak, but because the retrieval layer is too shallow. A single‑level
AI
Introduction At Hoomanely, we capture audio only when the proximity sensor detects a dog near the bowl. This ensures the sound we record is directly tied to feeding or drinking activity - not hours of irrelevant background noise. But even during those few seconds, real homes are chaotic acoustic environments:
AI
Introduction At Hoomanely, our mission is simple: give pet parents superpowers. From monitoring drinking patterns to spotting early temperature anomalies, our systems turn raw sensor data into clear, actionable health insights. But behind every insight is a critical intelligence layer - our rule‑based decision system. It bridges the gap
AI
Introduction When we look at an object, our brain effortlessly merges two slightly different images from our eyes to perceive depth and distance. Replicating this ability in machines, however, is anything but simple. At Hoomanely, where we design intelligent pet wellness systems, stereo vision plays a crucial role in understanding
AI
Intro: Vision That Starts with a Square At Hoomanely, we’re building smart systems that see and understand pets - from their eyes and movements to the bowls they eat from. To make this happen, our camera pipeline needs to detect key visual cues with precision and speed - even
AI
Intro Imagine spending weeks training a model, only to realize that deploying it efficiently across devices - from cloud GPUs to Raspberry Pi boards - feels like a whole new challenge. That’s where ONNX Runtime comes in. Built by Microsoft and backed by an open community, ONNX Runtime (ORT)
AI
Intro When you look at a photograph, your brain instantly infers which objects are near or far - even though the image itself is flat. Machines don’t have this innate ability. Monocular depth estimation teaches computers to infer depth using just one camera, without stereo vision or LiDAR. In
