Inspiration

We all love memes and we all love money, so therefore this project was born.

What it does

This is a game that grabs a slideshow of memes and the objective of the game is to be the person who avoids laughing the longest.

How we built it

We had to grab a service key from google cloud vision to use their vision API. We had to set up a node.js environment to make use of the vision API. We accessed the webcam and snapped a picture of the webcam every second and converted the image to a base64 string and sent it up to the google API, and retrieved the data for facial recognition of facial expression. Also had to grab memes from reddit using javascript's fetch function. We used HTML and CSS for the visual element of the program. We used electron to package our product.

Challenges we ran into

Grabbing the image from the webcam and sending it to the google vision API.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Setting up the google vision API and finishing a functional product on time.

What we learned

How to set up and use node.js, also javascript in general. How to connect to google vision API and use service keys.

What's next for Meme Supreme

Implement a cryptocurrency system so players can bet money.
