AI device flawlessly shoots instead of the user in video games

A device has been developed that helps the user to accurately aim at the enemy in computer

games.

The device can be used with both PCs and consoles. That is, in fact, it is impossible to somehow identify a cheat and punish the player for it.

The device is called CVCheat: it needs to be connected to a computer or console via HDMI, so the gadget can monitor frames transmitted by the video card to the monitor.

 Next, the device using artificialintelligence and computer vision launches an object detection algorithm to “see” enemies on the gamer’s screen and determine the location of the character’s body parts. The fact is that the CVCheat software can determine the head, body and legs of the enemy: you can even configure which part of the body you need to aim at. 

More advanced is already in developmenta version that will offer a fully automated aiming and firing process and will be able to work with any PC game, as well as Xbox and PlayStation game consoles. The hackers estimated the pro version of CVCheat at $ 50. According to its developers, it works effectively in games displayed at up to 240 frames per second. And it takes only 10 ms to identify the enemy on the screen and fire a shot.
