This week, I focused on improving the camera system to support motion detection capabilities. I was able to disable the camera’s auto-blur and auto-focus features. These automatic settings had been interfering with consistent image quality during fast motion, but after testing different configurations, I was able to achieve a stable image feed that’s much better suited for detecting movement.
Additionally, after further discussion with my team, we’ve decided not to pursue the use of a Raspberry Pi to host a web server for tracking previously played games.
Finally, while I’ve begun experimenting with motion detection by analyzing frame-to-frame changes between game states, it’s still uncertain whether I’ll be able to fully implement this feature. However, since motion detection is a post-MVP goal, this does not affect our core deliverables. I’ve completed all of my current tasks and remain on track with our overall project timeline.
