Engage in a Fun and Fitness-Focused Web Experience with Interactive Animal Rescue Games

Ever wondered how to combine fitness with interactive gaming on the web? We’re excited to introduce a dynamic workout game powered by cutting-edge computer vision technology. This innovative project leverages MediaPipe and Three.js to create an engaging experience where physical exercises translate into virtual actionsโ€”like doing a chin-up to save a cat!

Features and Customizations

  • Exercise Modes: Currently, the game includes a chin-up challenge. But thatโ€™s not allโ€”thereโ€™s also a push-up mode to diversify your workout routines.
  • Rescue Missions: Choose your rescue partnerโ€”either cats or dogsโ€”and engage in fun missions that motivate movement.

Technology Behind the Project

This project combines several powerful web technologies to create a seamless interactive experience:

  • MediaPipe: Utilized for accurate body pose tracking, recognizing your movements in real-time.
  • Three.js: Powers the 3D visual elements, making the game visually appealing and responsive.
  • Tone.js: Manages sound effects and audio feedback to enhance immersion.
