Show HN: From Photos to Positions: Prototyping VLM-Based Indoor Maps

3 points by accurrent 12 hours ago

Just a fun hack I did while bored over the weekend. My wife was busy shopping, it got me thinking that can VLMs solve the indoor location problem in a mall? Can I just show a VLM a map and an image and have it doa good enough job locating me? I hacked this P.O.C and it seems to work.
