how to recognize poker chips stack from a side view
Hi!
I need the wisdom of my fellow opencv gurus for a fun but tricky problem. I am going to have a poker tournament with my friends at my home, and I wanted to record the money bet with a camera which will be placed on the side of the table.
The chips will be stacked in a single stack, and can have colors white, black, red, blue, green. I wanted to count the total value of chips bet by any player in the game. the players could be sitting close or away from the camera. For illustration, I have attached a pic to this post.
any help would be appreciated.
Here is the link to images from the table https://app.box.com/s/ido370rb74tlwfwnfzhx
Pic doesnt work. You could try to segment the chips and then do a color detection of them
Thanks JayThaRevo, here is a link for the images: https://app.box.com/s/ido370rb74tlwfwnfzhx the main issue is that background subtraction doesnt reduce too much noise and without that, it is tough to isolate the chip stack and count the height. any ideas?
This is not a trivial task at all. One possible way to eliminate some complexity is to define where your friends have to place their chips so they are easier to segment, and then some HSV color detection. If you need to detect chip stacks on top of the table you are in for a treat :p
Good luck!
