About Push Up War

Real-Time Athletic Esports Meets 3D Computer Vision AI

Our Mission

Push Up War was created to solve a universal fitness dilemma: "Who does the cleanest, deepest push-ups?"

In gym locker rooms and workout challenges, athletes constantly argue over half-reps and form cheating. We built Push Up War as an open, accessible, browser-native platform that turns push-up training into an intense 1v1 live esports duel—with an unbiased AI referee verifying every single repetition.

The 3D Biomechanical AI Engine

Unlike basic fitness apps that simply detect head movement using optical flow, Push Up War executes full 3D skeletal landmark tracking directly within your web browser using Google MediaPipe Vision models running on WebAssembly:

📐 90° Elbow Depth Check

Calculates the exact interior 3D angle formed by shoulder, elbow, and wrist joints. A rep is only valid if elbow flexion drops to or below 92°.

📏 Straight Spinal Plank

Monitors shoulder-hip-ankle line to ensure you maintain a rigid horizontal plank (≥136°). Sagging hips or pike cheating are strictly rejected.

🛡️ Ghost Rep Filtering

Checks joint visibility thresholds (≥0.55). If you leave the camera frame or stand up, the detector halts counting to prevent false positives.

⚡ Sub-Millisecond P2P Sync

WebRTC peer-to-peer data channels transmit scores and video directly between devices with zero lag for real-time worldwide competition.

Open Web Philosophy

We believe athletic competition should have zero barriers to entry:

  • No Mandatory App Downloads: Works directly inside mobile Chrome, Safari, and desktop browsers.
  • No Login Wall: Anyone can duel friends instantly via QR code or quick 6-digit room codes.
  • 100% Free: Accessible to every fitness enthusiast worldwide.
