Play a Beat Saber clone with hand movements using Tensorflow.js & the MoveNet model, in the browser! 🎉

Based on the awesome work by Supermedium on the beat saver viewer.

Demo

How to use

• Visit the live demo
• Allow access to the webcam
• Place yourself about 1-2m away from your computer in a place that has enough light.
• Move your hands to see if the recognition works
• Start playing and hit beats!

Rules

None! It's not a real game, more of an experiment 🙂.

The only "restriction" is that the left hand can only destroy the red beats and the right hand, the blue beats.

Tech stack

• A-Frame
• Tensorflow.js
• PoseNet model
• Three.js

Development

:warning: The game was originally built with Node.js v8.9.1 which is pretty old. The install fails on more recent versions.

To run locally, clone this repository and run:

npm install
npm run start

As an alternative, you can run the index.html file located at the root with a python server like python -m HTTPServer 5000 for example.

Then open localhost (on port 9999 if you ran it with npm) in your browser and the default song should be Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen, but you can search for other songs in the bottom search bar.

Support

These kinds of side projects take me a lot of time so, if you like them, your support would be really appreciated if you want to/can 🙂.
