cursed captcha: level 11 put your webcam back in order

Me without a web cam trying to reconstruct a pitch black image

omw to save you. I’m bringing a lamp and a webcam

this was created with mediapipe computer vision (hand tracking model) and grok 4 if you want to build stuff like this, I've published 17 projects with code here:

If you have any other evil ideas, I’m all ears I will not rest until we have built the most cursed captcha

You gotta make one of these

I will not look as happy while solving the puzzle I already got pretty confused in the middle of this one lmao

thats a horribly effective concept.

Thank you Sal 🧩

😭 I’m sorry

hell yeaaa (i am gonna fail this as well)

stop giving them ideas

muahaha the evil R&D shall continue

come on i can't do all this just to prove im a human i will better use another site but not this timewaste

You've outdone yourself on this one man. This one is really cool and quite frankly potentially realistic.

Someone told me that FB has started to require video verification on some captchas The fight against bots is leveling up!

haha love all your playful experiments but this might be my favorite

thank you Yohei 🧩 more unhinged ideas coming soon

Getting some NICE numbers! Great work on capuring the niche, keep it up 👊

Thank you Eric. I have another captcha I really want to build On vacation for a few days so it will have to wait for now :]

it would be so awkward, I'll keep looking back to see what will fit where!! My neck🍃

Villains aren’t born... 😂

i was born in the depths of captcha hell this is my only way out

"Wow old people are so sharp these days! What is your secret?" People in their 90's today: Sudoku People in their 90's in 30 years: Captcha

lmao amazing. I want to make that happen

What I'm curious about is, would this actually work? Could an AI agent work this out? Even if they could, maybe the human motions necessary to sort everything into order would be hard to spoof... Maybe if you had prerecorded video to feed the webcam for each move?

the grid is scrambled randomly at the start of the captcha test, so pre-recorded video wouldn't work a humanoid robot with computer vision could probably pass though?

@ManifoldMarkets It would work if you have pre-recorded video of 16 grab + move to center's, and then you stitch and reverse to produce the desired operation

@measure_plan Are the arcs of human movement naturally symmetrical or do they tend to ease in and out? If there's something like hCaptcha that detects the human-ness of the motion you might need more clips. But 16*15 isn't that many

It would take me more time to solve this than to write a bot that will solve it.

I’ll try to publish these online soon Really curious to see what creative bot solutions people come up with

good idea

@Vjeux Webcam captcha + time limit is the ultimate bot proof 🤣

I'd goof off so much with this

No

No website is worth just through that much hoop

you must solve the captcha to collect your paycheck, sir

This cool stuff. How do you shuffle a video layer into multiple parts?

I rendered the video into 16 canvas elements!

I like it. :)

thank you Rachel 🧩💚

@Poofesure

OMG 🤣

make it a sliding puzzel

Trippy

Amazing. Do you share them on github or something this projects?

thank you rolo I publish my projects here: members get access to a private github repo

why does this feel so much harder than just solving a puzzle lol. these are genius

felt like my hand was moving through portals, got pretty disoriented in the middle lol

I like this one

Nice!

Brother, stop giving them these ideas

cool

woah.. I thought you don't have Twitter acc

oh hi!! nice to see you here too for some reason I’ve had the most engagement here

take the best of both platforms 💪🙏
