Using Computer Vision to Play ‘DOOM’ on Spatially-Mapped Christmas Tree LEDs | #doomgame #OpenCV @DOOM
Wait for it:
Also ch00ftech has a great, expansive write-up on their blog with lots more thoughts and details:
In order to make fun animations on the LEDs, we need to know the exact location of each LED. With the MPC Renaissance, I started with a picture of the device and wrote a script that would record where I clicked on that picture. By clicking on the LEDs in the order they were addressed in software, I essentially mapped the LED software address to their physical locations.
We’re in 2017 now though and everything is supposed to be solved with computer vision (or neural nets).
There’s a great open source project called OpenCV (Open Computer Vision) which has a bunch of awesome tools for giving robots eyeballs and letting them do the boring work for you like read license plates.
