tatbot,
open source
tattoo robot
Tattooing is an ancient human art, which has transformed with technology over centuries. Robotic tattooing generated AI art is the final evolution. Tatbot is fully open source, built in public, and runs entirely locally. You can fork it, modify it, and use your own AI running on your private computer. I am looking for artists, developers, and investors to join me on this journey.
Get involved
Artists
Tattoo robots will become as common as tattoo machines. Run tatbot on your own hardware in your own studio, not in a distant cloud owned by a faceless corporate entity. Generate your own designs, develop your unique style, and fully customize your tool. Tatbot lets you own your own future.
Developers
Work on a disgustingly hard problem. Tattooing requires impossible precision, perfect consistency, and exquisite artistic taste. An infinite stream of problems to solve: imitation learning, multiview reconstruction, realtime tracking, generative art pipelines. Build in public with an open source community and make a mark on the history of art.
Investors
Tattooing is a sacred ancient art and a multibillion global industry. When tattoo machines were first introduced they were hated. Tattooing has a complicated relationship with technology. That is why tatbot is open source: artists need full creative freedom. Tatbot will make revenue by becoming the global standard (e.g. HuggingFace).
