This week I worked on putting the detecting chessboard corners and background subtraction together. Unfortunately, I did not make much progress. It seems like the environment I am in is different from Jee Woong’s which is causing the problem. To mitigate this, I requested a white picture paper and a new black and white chess board, but I am not sure what is happening since I did not get any update from a TA. Here are some of the results I am getting.
The first one is with glare, the second one is without glare, the third one is without glare, but a light from a specific angle. None of them were able to detect the corners. Thankfully, the background subtraction seems to work with or without glare, since they are subtracted anyways.
As for the schedule, I am still on track with the schedule.
Next week, I plan to get this problem fixed and hopefully get a somewhat working system of the chessboard detection.
