Re: [computer-go] go vision / webcam to sgf / Tuchola

[Michal Bazynski <bazik@xxxxxx>]

there's a person in poland writing a program that tries to create an sgf 
from what it sees in the webcam. i saw this program in action, and it 
was quite impresive. it couldn't deal with players leaning over half the 
board with their heads, or with players playing very very quick sequences 
where they keep their hands over the table for 3-4 moves, but for whatit 
was used for (making it easier for the person who is trying to relay the 
game to igs) it was very cool. the guy entering the game could wander 
about, just looking from time to time if the program is not having a minor 
confusion somewhere...

if this is something you are interested in i can try to get the author to 
contact you...

regards

mike
