That would be a big task, I am looking at 3000+ riders in the event. I can find out the font and spacing, I have photos of past events to use to test. Can OpenCV detect the number and save it as a string?

Howdy, I am looking into a way to record the time a bicycle enters a rest stop for a charity event. I am thinking that a Raspberry Pi with a camera and OpenCV should be able to do it. But I am not a programmer.

Evch rider has a white bib with a four digit number. I know that not every bib will be detected, due to the mass amount of groups that ride in a pack. But if I can capture as many as I can would help.

I see that there is a tutoral in the book everyone talks about for licence plates, but it looks to be using images not video.

Does anyone have an ideas on the best way to do this? I just need it to record all (or most) of the numbers seen that past by to a text field.

Thanks, Phil

Howdy, I want to do the same for a bicycle event. Have you found a way to do this?
