Interactive multimodal visualization of the Flickr8k dataset stored in the Auraison lakehouse (s3://landing/flickr-8k/), powered by the Rerun SDK. What this demo shows:
  • Loading image + caption pairs directly from MinIO S3 via boto3
  • Logging them to Rerun with a sequential timeline (image_idx)
  • Saving a portable .rrd recording that can be shared or embedded
  • Embedding the Rerun web viewer in a Mintlify MDX page via <iframe>
Prerequisites:

Step 1, Load Captions from S3

Flickr8k caption file format: CSV with image,caption columns. Each image has 5 reference captions from different annotators.

Step 2, Log Images + Captions to Rerun

We initialise a Rerun recording stream and save it to a .rrd file. Each image is logged as rr.EncodedImage (JPEG bytes, no decode needed) and each set of captions as rr.TextDocument with Markdown formatting. Timeline: image_idx, a sequence timeline, one step per image.

Step 3, Open in the Rerun Web Viewer

To view the recording locally, run:
The recording can also be embedded in any web page using our own copy of the Rerun viewer, see the Mintlify Embed section below.

What Rerun shows

Step 4, Mintlify Embed (iframe)

The Rerun web viewer loads any publicly hosted .rrd file through its url query parameter. We serve the viewer ourselves from artifacts.aegeanai.com rather than from app.rerun.io, which stopped serving its viewer assets to embedded pages:
To embed the Flickr8k recording instead, upload flickr8k_demo.rrd to the artifacts bucket and substitute the url parameter. Keep the recording’s format version in its key, as the VisDrone one does, because a viewer only reads its own and the preceding minor version.

Live embed test

The iframe below loads the VisDrone recording, which confirms both that the Mintlify <iframe> renders and that the self-hosted viewer starts:
