Qwen Qwen3-VL AI technology Hackathon projects

Discover innovative solutions crafted with Qwen Qwen3-VL AI technology, developed by our community members during our engaging hackathons.

Vdcap.AI

Vdcap.AI is a full-stack, automated video captioning platform that generates and compares four distinct caption styles side-by-side. Designed for creators and marketers, the system accepts video uploads and extracts audio and keyframes using FFmpeg and OpenCV. If audio is present, it uses cloud Speech-to-Text APIs Fireworks (Whisper and LLM available on Fireworks AI) for high-fidelity transcription. If the video is mute, the pipeline falls back to visual frame analysis. The transcript and visual context are processed via Fireworks AI using the Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct and GLM models. These generate four tailored caption styles: Formal (professional), Sarcastic (witty), Humorous-Tech (developer-oriented), and Humorous-NonTech (casual). FFmpeg overlay filters burn these captions directly onto separate video streams. On the frontend, a handcrafted dark-mode glassmorphism interface presents the results in a synchronized 4-quadrant player. Seeking, playing, or pausing any video instantly syncs the other three, allowing real-time comparison of subtitle styles. Users can export their captions as individual SRT files, structured JSON data, captioned MP4s, or a complete ZIP package including an interactive HTML summary report. Vdcap.AI also contains a modular pipeline using LoRA adapters for fine-tuning caption models on MSR-VTT and ActivityNet datasets, making it fully ready for custom AI deployment.

VigiAI focused on the alert feature

VigiAI is an intelligent real-time surveillance system for detecting traffic accidents and anomalies. Running on an AMD MI300X accelerator, its hybrid architecture splits tasks between local processing—using Qwen-VL 7B, YOLO v8x, optical flow, and pose estimation—and cloud analytics via DeepSeek-V4 Flash through the Fireworks AI API. To handle chaotic real-world events, it was trained on the complete UCF-Crimes dataset (over 100 GB of footage). The system processes video through a structured 7-phase pipeline: Event Detection: Identifies anomalies instantly. Localization: Pins down spatial bounding boxes and timestamps. Scene Analysis: Evaluates weather, road, and lighting conditions. Causal Inference: Infers accident causes and secondary risks. Object Tracking: Tracks and counts vehicles or pedestrians. Speed Estimation: Measures velocity using pixel-to-meter calibration. Narrative Generation: Compiles an executive summary and detailed report. VigiAI detects 14 anomaly classes (accidents, theft, fights, fires, etc.) and transmits instant alerts via WebSockets over a public Cloudflare Tunnel. The web dashboard features live camera/webcam feeds, a GPS map, historical logs, and local vs. cloud performance metrics.

Context-Aware Video Captioning

This project is an adaptive AI video captioning agent that transforms raw video into distinct, personality-driven text. To prevent API timeouts on longer videos, the agent dynamically samples frames based on the video's total duration. It then feeds those frames to Fireworks AI using strict prompt engineering to generate four unique caption styles: formal descriptions, dry sarcasm, relatable internet humor, and cynical developer jokes. Finally, a bulletproof JSON extraction layer ensures the output is always formatted perfectly for production environments.

Salience

Auto-clippers like ShadowPlay and Medal save everything — boring cleanup kills included. Salience is a personalized highlight-ranking layer that learns which moments YOU actually care about: one-pump shotgun kills, snipes, clutches, build fights, or Victory Royales. How it works: Salience watches the folder where clips are already saved, samples keyframes, and extracts structured labels (weapon, elimination type, context, victory). A ranked review inbox lets you mark clips favorite / keep / boring / skip, and a lightweight personal ranker updates instantly from that feedback plus an 18-question taste questionnaire. The AI story is teacher–student distillation. During development, Qwen VLM on Fireworks AI labels clips with 28 constrained highlight attributes and event timestamps. Those teacher labels train a local student: a MobileNetV3-small backbone with an event locator head, per-event weapon/evidence heads, and context heads, exported to ONNX and fused with local OCR (RapidOCR reads the weapon HUD and victory banner). On an 81-clip held-out eval, the student reaches ~0.80 mean per-label agreement with the VLM teacher — enemy-visible F1 0.97, elimination F1 0.93, victory F1 0.89 — while running entirely on CPU with no API key and no upload. Inference is sub-second per clip; the full pipeline including video decoding is ~30 s per clip. Privacy is the point: the shipped ranking loop never needs to upload gameplay. The cloud teacher is an optional development-time tool, and the same harness can route to AMD Developer Cloud (Qwen2.5-VL via vLLM) as the teacher endpoint.

Probably runs on Samsung S25

Hybrid Router is an intelligent AI inference system that dynamically selects the best execution path for each user query instead of relying on a single large language model. The system first analyzes the incoming prompt to identify the task type, estimate its complexity, and determine whether it can be solved deterministically or requires generative AI. For structured tasks such as mathematical calculations, JSON validation, regular expression verification, and date/time operations, the router invokes specialized deterministic tools that produce fast, accurate, and reproducible results without consuming LLM tokens. For more complex natural language and coding tasks, the router attempts local inference using OpenVINO-optimized models running on Intel hardware, reducing latency and API costs. If the local model is unlikely to provide a sufficiently reliable answer or the task exceeds its capabilities, the system automatically falls back to Fireworks AI models for high-quality remote inference. The routing decisions are driven by task classification, confidence estimation, and configurable thresholds, allowing the system to balance accuracy, response time, and operational cost. The architecture is modular, making it easy to add new tools, local models, or routing strategies in the future. The project also includes benchmarking and evaluation components that measure routing accuracy, latency, model utilization, and fallback frequency to continuously improve routing performance. By combining deterministic tools, local inference, and cloud-based language models into a single adaptive pipeline, Hybrid Router delivers efficient, scalable, and cost-aware AI inference while maintaining high response quality across a wide range of tasks.

TRUST LAYER

Trust Layer is a full-stack anti-counterfeit verification and consumer engagement platform designed to protect brand integrity, secure supply chains, and empower buyers through intelligent product interaction. How It Works Serialization: Brands assign a cryptographically unique QR code to every individual physical unit during manufacturing. First-Scan Authentication: Upon a consumer's scan, the system checks the code's state. If "unclaimed," the product is authenticated and locked. If the code is already "claimed," the system instantly alerts the user of a potential counterfeit and logs the threat. RAG AI Execution: Authenticated users can query the AI. The system matches the context from the brand's verified documents, and feeds it to the LLM for a precise, factual response. Live Telemetry: All scans, counterfeit flags, and user data are streamed to the brand's dashboard for real-time tracking, fraud detection, and consumer insight analysis. Core Features Zero-Trust Verification: Every product unit is assigned a cryptographically unique QR code. The absolute first scan establishes legitimate ownership. Any subsequent scans of that identical code instantly flag the item as a potential counterfeit, protecting the consumer and alerting the brand. RAG-Powered AI Assistant: Consumers can chat with a built-in AI agent to ask natural language questions about ingredients, usage instructions, or warranties. Utilizing a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architecture, the AI pulls deterministic, accurate answers strictly from the brand’s verified documents, eliminating LLM hallucinations. Proactive Recall Alerts: In the rare event of a defect, brands can trigger targeted recall notifications directly to the smartphones of the exact consumers who scanned the affected batch. Brand Telemetry Dashboard: Owners access a real-time analytics portal tracking scan velocity and device details, while maintaining an intuitive interface to update the AI's product knowledge base.
