This week I spent a lot of time continuing integration with Devank and working to improve the CV System. I improved detection of balls along the edge so it will find those consistently and than Devank and I worked together to get the Servo system working so that when the a button is pressed by the user, the servo will block the projection and then the CV and shot calculation system will run. The system is works well in good light and we have started making plans to try and minimize the affects of shadows on our cv system. I also worked on slides for the presentation next week with my team. My progress is on schedule and we should be ready for our demos and presentation. Next week I hope to get the shadow mitigations in place and working and putting finishing touches on the CV system and integration with the rest of the system to make it seamless.

This week I made very good progress. I got the CV program working with the video and have experimented with the optimization of it to make it work faster. I also have worked on the detection of solids vs stripes vs the eight ball vs the cue ball. The image below shows a white circle around the cue ball, a black circle around the 8 ball, green circles around solids and a red circle around the striped ball.

I am currently on schedule. This week I am planning on finishing implementing the color for the video(it should just be a simple case of changing thresholds to account for a difference in camera) and then integrating my program with the backend shot calculation. This should go quickly as Devank and I have discussed extensively the communication between the two.
