Goodness, this is awesome -

An android that plays the Guitar Hero game. A computer processes the video feed from the PlayStation2, detects where, when and how to play and moves the fingers accordingly. This project was done by GarageGeeks members Rafael Mizrahi and Tal Chalozin.

This project is neato. Too bad they couldn't be bothered to make a decent video of the android in action. All that effort to be chronicled by some shaky dude in the back of the room. Nice.
