This project was proposed in the context of Visual Computing subject and its main purpose was to apply multiple techniques of lower level image processing, using the OpenCV library. A real-time card recognition software was developed, and it might be useful integrating it in other platforms (casinos, card games AI agents, etc.).
In order to run the app, you just need to have g++ and cmake, aswell as OpenCV libraries.
cmake .
make
./card_recognition
You can also see the full demo video.
Please make sure the camera is not in a very perspective view, otherwise cards may not me recognized.
If you have any more doubts, please check the report/presentation.
