Hybrid V3 Update

Progress is extremely good and detections are 100% accurate in suitable conditions, and timings are comfortably accurate to within 10ms. So the main parts are perfect. Now most of the work is making it EASIER to set up. Already it is very simple but there is still room for improvement.

The latest video update is at www.roulettesystemanalysis.com/m/v3ir.wmv
This time it is WMV format.

About the Video:


* The wheel's location is tracked, and the ball is searched for in the box.

* Another part of the software shows the extracted video for analysis. I created a "picture in picture" video so you can see what the software sees.

* The ball is marked by an orange box

* Because video frame rates would normally have significant errors, the position of the ball relative to a fixed reference point is accounted for. So if the ball is say 15 degrees off, the software determines the precise timing based on the angle discrepancy. It is accurate to within 10ms, which is 50 times more accurate than manually clicking a button as normal roulette computers do.

* Development has cost me now nearly 3 times as much, and many times longer than originally anticipated. But because of the time to develop, purchasers will only pay the mid-range of original estimates.

* It is difficult to give a time estimate for release. First we have to complete making setup easier, then check for any bugs. Then a few of the other minor components need to be completed. I will give updates when I know an accurate estimate.
