These engineers on TikTok made a vest for the Eras tour with LED strips that flash in sync with the wrist bands.

Video below. Summary: they had a wrist band from a previous show, connected the terminals on its microchip to their own microcontroller, extracted signals from the wrist band man in the middle style, programmed the microcontroller to interpret the signal, lit up the vest.

I thought it was rather in the spirit of hacker news.

Hi! I work on the Microsoft Cognitive Services team, which includes the Bing Web Search APIs in our family.

For feature requests, it would be awesome if you posted them to: https://cognitive.uservoice.com/ (I'm also forwarding your post to Bing).

If you want to get in touch with the team directly about a question/issue, the "Contact Us" widget at the bottom of the Cognitive Services page is the way to go: https://www.microsoft.com/cognitive-services

Hey, I've signed up for a test account, and I'm trying out the Computer Vision API. However the three properties I'm most interested in (which are also featured on the example page [1] are not being returned (or documented!) for the actual SDK: "Description", "Tags" and "Celebrities".

Are these coming soon? I'd love to develop something with the Vision API, but I'd rather not continue until I know if / when my requests will indeed return these features.

Cheers & Thanks
