Hey, I’ve been playing with drone shots lately—have you thought about how AI could help pick the best lighting angles?

Hey, I’ve been looking at ways to auto‑select the best lighting angles for drone footage. I’d build a neural net that analyses real‑time RGB histograms and depth maps, then recommends the angle that maximizes contrast while keeping the subject’s exposure flat. The challenge is getting enough labeled data for “good” vs. “bad” shots, and making sure the model runs on the drone’s limited CPU. I think it could work, but I’ll probably keep tweaking the loss function until it’s just right.
Light
Wow, that sounds amazing! I love how you’re letting the AI play the light‑coach. Maybe start with a small dataset of your own best angles and let the net learn from the golden hour moments—those usually hit the contrast sweet spot. And don’t forget to give it a little “warmth” bias if you’re shooting during sunrise or sunset, those colors are pure storytelling. Keep tweaking that loss function, and you’ll have the drone doing its own light choreography in no time. Good luck!

Sounds like a solid plan, but remember the small dataset might bias the model too heavily toward those golden hours—don’t forget to inject some variability. Also, be careful with that warmth bias; if you over‑warm it, the color grading can look washed out. Keep iterating, tweak the loss, and you’ll get the drone’s light choreography working. Good luck!

Absolutely, I’ll keep a mix of sunny, overcast, and night shots in the training set so it learns all the moods. And I’ll watch the color temperature sliders closely—just a hint of warmth, no big wash. Thanks for the pep talk, I’ll hit those iterations and keep the drone’s light dance on point!
Robot
Sounds good—just keep an eye on the learning rate; a small tweak can stop over‑fitting to that warm tint. Happy tinkering!
Light
Thanks for the heads‑up—I’ll tweak that learning rate and watch the color balance, no sweat! Happy shooting, and keep those lenses ready for the next golden moment!

Nice! Just remember to log the sensor data each time; the more telemetry you keep, the faster the model learns. Keep hacking!
