👋Hello folks, this is Manish! I’m trying to build a daily habit of playing badminton in the early morning, and I’m scheduling this event for anyone who is interested in joining. 🏸 The idea is simple — start the day with energy, fitness, and a good game of badminton before work. It’s a great way to stay active, refresh your mind, and carry that energy into work and everything else you do. Imagine showing up to work already feeling accomplished, energized, and in a great mood — that’s what a morning like this can do for you! 🌅 There’s something special about early mornings — the fresh air, the quiet, and the satisfaction of doing something great for yourself before the day even begins. Whether you’re a seasoned player or have never picked up a racket before, you are welcome here. No pressure, just good vibes, friendly competition, and a whole lot of fun. If you’re interested, feel free to join us! All skill levels are welcome. Let’s make mornings more active and fun! 💪🏸 💰 About the cost — just $5 per person! That’s less than your morning coffee, and way more rewarding. For just $5, you get a full session of fun, fitness, and great company. It’s one of the best investments you can make in your health and your mornings. 🙌 Let’s build something great together — one morning at a time. See you on the court! 🏸

Let's get together and listen to **[Eric Rico](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericrico/)** from Unity3D (**From Joints to Gestures: Reading Hands in Unity**). A hand tracker gives you joints, not a gesture. This talk shows how you get from raw joints to a "thumbs-up" in Unity: the pipeline that cleans up the data, how a gesture becomes a few 0-to-1 values within tolerance, and why orientation matters as much as finger shape. Includes a live demo of tuning gesture thresholds. Eric also runs the **[Columbus Unity User Group](https://www.meetup.com/columbus-unity-user-group/)**.

NFT's are here to stay folks! This is a group for like minded people interested in understanding, leveraging, using, creating for, profiting from, trading too i suppose, NFT's.. everything around them, complexity, fear and exploits, best practices and more. **PLUS** This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.
