DeepNote GH Bot plays "Through the Fire and the Flames"

[potyec]

The bot is missing 1 at 1:37 ::DDD !!!! y can hear it

[atomicman2345]

It's fake, the guitar isn't on fire!!!

[Igoryocheck]

My bot (not QueenBee bot - it doesn't work on Frets on Fire) failed on a custom song. It is We Three Kings by Steve Ouimette. There is no sustained notes - it gives more difficulty to a song. Will somebody say me how to take a video from the game? I'd want to place such video here.

[xpresviideo]

que fraude! porque no juegan y listo! q sentido tiene eso!

[sciguy14]

no es un fraude! El sistema funciona independientemente!

[717chris1]

How does it work? does it like sense the heat of the notes on the screen?

[sciguy14]

it checks brightness levels. See the other video of how it works.

[nathanexplosion94]

dude id buy this 4om u with instructions

how much?

[sciguy14]

its not for sale. You can build your own using the instructions on our site.

[SoupedUpMario]

i prefer the les paul guitar, cos its wireless

[sciguy14]

The x-plorer was better suited for this project

[davidleacy]

that is by far one of the smartest and coolest thing ive ever seen you and your friends are genius

[ZackT2]

that bot is crazy

[sciguy14]

The Xplorer guitar is an official guitar... It comes with GH3 for PC and Xbox.

[SouljaPepp3r]

les paul is better but both are official

[oOJakeychanOo]

thats both mechanically and technologically awesome!!

[Werem1dget]

As cool as it is impressive. Awesome work.

[TF2Pyrosux]

it cant use star powah?

[sciguy14]

Sure it can. It even uses an algorithm to determine the most intelligent time to activate it.

[CooIioco]

hey how do you make a bot?pm me if you can tell me,please!

[sciguy14]

information is on our website.

[JamieBeast666]

OMG if u can do this with sum circuits and a game I would not like to be near u if u got hold of something dangerous and as the previous comment said u guys are LEGENDS

[sciguy14]

haha thanks :)

[Kotik112]

holy shit... man making a machine to play his games for him.. anyway, in the time you made the bot you could've made yet another Guitar hero Sequel ;). You guys are le-gen-dary!

[sciguy14]

thanks!

Say it with me now. LE ... GEN ...DARRRYYY!

[gaglaga123]

WOW first time i think there are no such a bot that can use sensor to detect note but i guess i wrong your bot is cooler than mine my bot is takes hours to upload Through the Fire and the Flames note

[sciguy14]

thanks! Our goal was to make it capable of playing any song with no notechart loaded.

[flipey21]

holy shit.if we can build a bot to play a game think of what else we can do.amazing.

[oldkingkole123]

does this work on PS2 USB slots?

[sciguy14]

no, the x-plorer guitar works on xbox and PC only.

[oldkingkole123]

but what about modding a Krammer Striker (GH3 PS2 controller)

[sciguy14]

You could do this with any guitar hero controller. Inside they are essentially the same. The main difference is just the interface that it uses.

[iamaldoro]

Guys,i have installed Guitar Hero: Aerosmith,started the game , but when i click the buttons to follow the notes,theres no sound. I see the buttons pushed but no sound at all. I play on pc/keyboard. Please Help!

[matheus11397]

where do you buy those bots?

if there isn't a place to buy them...how do you make them?

[sciguy14]

A parts list, schematics, and source code are available on our website. With a bit of electronics knowledge you could build one using that information.

[matheus11397]

thanks

[urbanrunners]

this is stupid....taking the complete point out of the game

[sciguy14]

This wasn't so we could get a high score on the game, it was a fun engineering problem.

[xenrayz]

I most say that was real stupid said. Of course it just was for enginnering fun! Or he would just record screen and say something like "TTFAF 98% OMG!!!" Please think before write stupid comments.

[FutureComputing]

@urbanrunners wow, your stupid

[zetsushoren]

the bot made mistakes? `_`

[sciguy14]

The price for it being able to play any song on demand.

[xenrayz]

Bot make misstake becouse it's created with sensor which we humans also have instead of 100% coded to only play ttfaf i most say real good job.

[zetsushoren]

hmm... ~_~

[redoctane456]

does it work for ps2

[sciguy14]

The guitar is a USB guitar.  Only the 360 and the PC are compatible with it.

[Chidori118]

How did and do u play with god of rock?

[sciguy14]

You can buy him on the 360 and PC versions.

[SaberWolf16]

360, pc, and ps3

[Chidori118]

where can u get a bot?

[sciguy14]

you can build one

[iSOBigD]

It's about as original as your name. Take a popular, mainstream game and use it as your name online. Clearly you are awesome and original.

[sciguy14]

If you read our website, you would see that our bot name is derived from the deepBlue supercomputer. I have no knowledge of a person on score hero with the name deepnote.

[GearsOfWarCRAZY]

Wait... Im sorry... I posted this on the wrong video. Im sorry for the mixup... (Continues on with life...)

[super9mario9]

hi its me again you aid you took it out i think i seee it still do it not to be lie a nnoying or anything but is there a way to make so it wammy not so fast or realy fast on just the starpower chords

[sciguy14]

you can turn it off, or change the frequency in the programming.

[mikeyk777]

what about making a bot inside the guitar, and have like a button to push, wheter to 100% the song,or to have te person play the song

[sciguy14]

that's basically what it is. There is an auto/manual switch on the guitar.

[mikeyk777]

what about no sensors infront of the tv?

[sciguy14]

The notes need to be detected somehow in our method.

[mikeyk777]

but some some botes have the song charts already stored in the controller, they switch on the bot when the songs loading, and thats it

[sciguy14]

Yeah, but they have to program any song they want to play into the guitar, which takes hours and hours for each song. Ours can play any song, without any prior knowledge. As far as engineering challenges go, our method is far more sophisticated.

[JoePage2008x2]

Ive got to admit your bots extremely reliable, i made my circuit less cluttered and still hoped it would work, it didnt. Ive now gone back to my old design and it picks notes up perfectly, but the only problem is that i need to buy a guitar of my own for it, i need to buy a few more of these chips and it probably wont ever be able to pick up the notes where you have to strum up and down. But when ive got it done i'll definately post it on youtube, it may one-day beat yours, doubt it though.

[sciguy14]

cool :) good luck

[idd405]

hahaha the best thing i like about this is about 6:11 after the solo part it messes up on the chord, which is usually what happens to me when i play it lol

[sciguy14]

To my knowledge only one person has documented getting 100% FC on this song (iamchris4life). Please correct me if this is not the case.

[zlynn1990]

Today on ustream, DeepNote got 100% on ttfaf in practice mode. With a bit more modification and optimization to the code, I think we can get it to fc ttfaf in a real run. The reason deepnote missed on mostof the fast strumming sections here was because hyperspeed 4 was used, and not 5.

[FireSlash18]

You might get better response from the sensors if you remove (or redneck it and just apply some electrical tape over the back of) the red LEDs on the rack. Also make sure you're using 720p or 1080p, most sensors are easily confused by interlacing. I see no reason why this baby can't do 100% with a bit of tweaking :3

[dharcha1]

my favorite part is how they got the whammy to work and it just destroys all the long note pitches, i personally do that whenever i can.

amazing project, guys.

[nevershootme]

May the best robotic GH bot win... cuz I do recall there was another group that was doing this too

[sciguy14]

Only one human has ever gotten 100% on this song. Our bot gets 99%. I think that is pretty good.

[Godlesswanderer]

I bet a lot more than one human has got 100% on this song. That's not to say that your bot isn't amazing though, it really is.

[mikeyk777]

iamchris4life is the only person on any record to have fc'd it

[sciguy14]

hahaha, we'll see what happens, we haven't decided for sure what we are going to do. At the very least, there will probably be an instructional guide.

[sciguy14]

haha maybe...

[mrpenguinismyhomeboy]

The thing about this that amazes me is the fact that its actually reading the notes and isn't preprogrammed.

[CsS1337h4x0r]

lmao, would you get banned if you tried this on xbl?

but awesome job on this.

[sciguy14]

the better question is... would they know we were using it on XBL?

[amiller90]

Its hard to see on the video but the bot actually got 820,000 points that run.

[petitoeuf8]

deepnote is joke on deep throat?

[sciguy14]

Well actually its name is based on DeepBlue, the IBM supercomputer, which had its name based on DeepThroat. So, yeah kinda.

[petitoeuf8]

too bad it cant 100% stuff well. plenty of humans have beaten those scores, but w/e.

its still cool. must've taken a lot of work...
