This code plays the google chrome offline mode dino game

In this first try, there is one major and two minor problems:

In its current form this code works on Debian 10. But when I run it on my Mac Book Pro the screenshot output is not correct, to me it looks like Selenium Driver issue but I am not sure.

Currently it only runs in day mode, this is easy to fix by taking the average of half the pixels in a row to identify if it is morning or night, I will add that in my next approach

Since I am taking screenshot which takes around 40 to 90 milliseconds, image processing is under 2 milliseconds, so if i fix the night mode operation in this project, the game will anyways eventually fail because the Dino velocity will be so high that due to the screenshot delay by the time a descision has been made Dino would have already hit the obstacle.

Algorithm:

The code uses selenium to take a screenshot

Uses the java image buffer to process the screenshot and identify objects on ground and air

Identifies how far the object is

Identifies the width of the object

Code then decides when to jump or duck

Trying it out:

If you want to see the code in action by running Selenium driver then :

1. Make sure you have Google Chrome installed

2. Make sure you have Selenium Google Chrome driver or else please download it from https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads

For download you will need to know which Google Chrome version is running on your machine.

You can check your chrome version by clicking on three dots at the top right corner then in the menu, move mouse down to "Help" then click on "About Google Chrome" to see Chrome version

3. Edit RunChromeForManualExecution.java present in integration tests

4. In RunChromeForManualExecution.java Update System.setProperty according to your OS and the path to wherever you have downloaded or saved the driver from Step 2

Linux : System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "YOUR_DRIVER_FULL_PATH");

OSX : System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "YOUR_DRIVER_FULL_PATH");

Windows : System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "YOUR_DRIVER_FULL_PATH");

5. If you are using Intellij then simple click on green pointer next to the public static void main method to run the program

Test Cases:

All image process test cases are written using JUnit and are in dino.sensor package

Configuration

Game configuration like when to jump can be updated via DinoConstants.java class
