Key Details About Nuca Camera

The Nuca camera prototype is equipped with a 37 mm lens and Internet connectivity and uses AI to turn the person in the photo from clothed to nude.

Specifically, when you press the shutter button, the photo will be sent to the server to analyze gender, age and other details and then convert into text. From that information, the server will use it to make commands to create nude photos for AI. Once created, the photo will be matched with the head of the person in the photo "in the most natural way".

The camera uses the famous image-from-text model Stable Diffusion and Civitai - AI that specializes in creating controversial pornographic images.

Vef and Groß said they "just wanted to find out how people would react to the photos" and had no intention of developing a commercial version of Nuca.

However, the group still posted promotional videos about Nuca's image creation capabilities on social networks. Immediately, the video received many mixed reactions. Most people believe that this product "seriously violates privacy rights", as well as "spreads unethical pornographic images" if sold.

Vef and Groß responded that their AI camera operates "under strict ethical principles, with consent and for adults only".

Although not commercialized, Nuca will still be displayed at an event in Berlin on June 29.
