Hi Mr. Lee!
We’re Jie Yang and Sean — two Year 1 NUS Computer Science students passionate about music and technology, which led us to form Code & Chords. Our project, Guitar Story, is a space-themed, AI-powered guitar learning tool that helps players see music theory in action as they play.
We believe computer science is more than just code — it’s a tool to solve real-world problems. And for us, music isn’t just a hobby — it’s something deeply personal. This project is our way of blending both worlds to create something meaningful, not just for ourselves, but for musicians everywhere.
After struggling with rigid apps and endless YouTube tutorials that offer little real-time feedback, we asked ourselves:
What if learning guitar felt more like a personalised adventure game — complete with missions, live scale overlays, and interactive feedback?
With Guitar Story, users can:
• Detect fretboards in real time using OpenCV + Roboflow
• Overlay dynamic scale patterns and guitar tabs
• Get feedback and tackle progression challenges — one riff at a time
We’re aiming for Artemis level, and we’re looking for a mentor who can help us navigate real-time system design, AI tuning, and user-centred feedback loops. Your expertise in Computer Vision and AI would be incredibly valuable in helping us bring this vision to life.

Hi Mr Lee @"Lee Hyung Woon" , we're Jordan and Maximus, and we're Year 1 Computer Science students seeking to build a 3D Action Beat 'em Up game for our Orbital project.
As we've said in our posters, we're very interested in game design and the technology powering the games we play, and we think that there is valuable insight to be gained in exploring underrated genre combinations to push interesting and relatively un-treaded design space and find interesting uses for existing technology and clever solutions to new challenges. Our game, Insatiable, draws inspiration from titans of the genre like Prototype and the Arkham Series, and has the player going around fighting enemies and consuming them to upgrade their powers. We also plan to implement multiplayer functionality and destructible environments, as well as challenge modes among other features in the works. We are able to consider all these scalable features as we plan to develop with a robust backend, with a solid code-base supported by established patterns like state machines and event listeners, as we plan to really push the envelope with exploring the limits of the genre and relatively un-seen genre combinations.
We see that you are interested in Human-Computer interactions, and we think gamedev is one of the fields in which this strongly comes into play, as games are ultimately about providing an experience for their users. Maximus and I have been hobbyist gamedevs for a while, participating in gamejams and the like, but we see this is an opportunity to branch out beyond our amateur skills, and this is one of the fields which I think has extreme relevance to what we aim to achieve. We think your mentorship will definitely gain us invaluable insights that we can apply to our work which would require momentous effort to discover on our own without the aid of your expertise.
We hope that you take the time to consider our proposal, and choose to mentor our team.
Yours Sincerely,
Jordan & Maximus
