GARBLER MINES

DATA-TRAINING

Gamified data annotation for video game audio.

Summary

THUNKER: If you like games where you bring the line to the right spot and get points while listening to outlandish audio and can stomach pre-alpha gameplay, it's a fun way to label some games.

Annotate audio data through a clunky and chaotic game instead of sterile or out-of-date labeling software. Feeds boundary and quality details to the VoxGarbler engine: the better you play the mines, the better the model and spiritbox become!

Check out the pre-alpha prototype here: https://voxgrblr.com/ (may be broken, still work in progress).
