The project
Overview
For an upcoming experiment, I wanted to control the RGB lighting
effects of hardware based on certain conditions and triggers in
software, like a game. This could be a fun thing to play with
for content creators and streamers where their environment
reacts to their in-game performance. I already have a
SteelSeries
mouse with RGB so it was perfect to experiment with.
Description
GoGoGameSense is a Go implementation of the JSON API for the
SteelSeries Engine 3 GameSense service. It exposes the native
calls directly in Go that allows you to set up simple flashing
effects as well as intricate fading routines.
At the moment only devices with two RGB regions have been tested
simply because that is the hardware I already own.
The demo video below shows the mouse changing colour and
flashing based on your health in the game
Apex Legends . It uses some basic computer vision to determine the health
of the player and passes the information to the mouse using the
library.
