For the latest wheel tracking algorithm in action, see www.hybridroulettecomputer.com/v3-afeb12.wmv
This video really gives it a good test with some fast, vigorous and unreasonable shaking of the camera. This algorithm learns the different angles of the wheel. If you watch carefully, you can see how well it learns from this short video - it learns both angle and scale changes. Especially angle changes are very difficult to do because with basic algorithms, the computer thinks the image has changed completely whereas we as humans can very easily recognize mere angle changes. This is really not easy work to develop, so understandably we have taken longer than expected to get this far.
But as per my recent broadcast, the current developer is quite ill so we need to find a new developer to complete the hybrid v3 in a timely manner. To avoid further delays, the original developer will continue while the new one creates his own version. Then we'll just use whichever version is best.
