Ohai! (I presented that Angry Birds bot at PyCon.) My bot is now called "Tapster" and I continue to make improvements. It's completely open-source; I'd love to expand the community of game-playing bot fans. (http://tapsterbot.com) I even created a 3d-printable LEGO Technic-compatible building material to make the bot. (http://bitbeam.org)

I'm working on training Tapster to play Flappy Bird. I'm going down the route of webcam + OpenCV.

This is why I love Hacker News, I can ask a question about getting a lego robot to beat my favorite cell phone game and there's someone watching who has done it.

Would love to hear how it goes! I'm sure a blog post about that would be front page HN material.
