Comment on NHL goal celebration hack: real-time machine learning and hue light showparent

Comments

For false positives during a live broadcast, I have the big USB button ready to cancel the light show and goal song. I did not mention in the blog post is that it stops the goal song by playing the Fail Trombone sound (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMpXAknykeg) when you use the USB button to cancel light show

Really not sure how it would work for other sports. The only reason it worked so well is probably because they GOOOAAAAAALLLLLLLL yell is long and distinctive versus everything else. It's not about intensity as much as a pattern in the frequency spectrum. I think it's worth a try with soccer and football.

Did you consider trying to use speech recognition rather than spectrogram analysis?
