Introduction

Project Introduction

Simon approached us with a groundbreaking request: to develop an advanced game analysis application that could not only monitor and analyze video game sessions in real time but also provide actionable insights for players looking to enhance their gaming skills. This project aimed to harness the power of computer vision to detect key game elements and offer detailed analysis of player performance, enabling gamers to refine their strategies and improve their gameplay.

Problem

THE Problem

Analyzing video games for performance improvement is a complex task that requires precise detection of various game elements, such as player names, characters selected, game start and end times, remaining lives, and the winner of the game. Manual analysis of these factors is not only time-consuming but also prone to errors, making it difficult for players to get accurate and actionable insights. The challenge was to automate this process, ensuring comprehensive and accurate data extraction and analysis in real time, even during live gameplay sessions.

Solution

The Solution

We tackled this challenge by developing a sophisticated system that leverages cutting-edge computer vision and object detection technologies to automatically extract critical game data, recognize player actions, and provide real-time analysis. Utilizing advanced object recognition models, our system accurately identifies player names and the characters they have selected, ensuring comprehensive data capture from the outset. By implementing precise time-tracking mechanisms, it detects the exact start and end times of the game, enabling focused analysis. The system continuously monitors the number of lives and health levels of each player, crucial for assessing performance and identifying key moments. It then analyzes these moments to determine the mistakes made by the losing player based on his character’s abilities and the actions performed by the opponent player. At the end of each game, it identifies the winner, providing clear outcomes for each session analyzed. Additionally, the application performs real-time monitoring using keystroke analysis, categorizing moves as offensive or defensive and suggesting optimal strategies for future gameplay, giving players an immediate competitive edge.

How It Work

Here's how it works

Player Name Extraction
