Project Breakdown

Image Processing

Image Processing Block Diagram.

The purpose of the image processing software of this project is to distinguish between different cards.

This is done using a four step method:-

• Find the outline of playing card on the black background
• Crop and warp the playing card so that it is a perfect rectangle
• Crop the suit and value images from the top left corner
• Run Optical Character Recognition software on the suit and value images

The digital image techniques used in the above steps are as follows:-

• The Hough Transfer
• Pixel Template Matching
• Mean Filtering
• Adaptive Image Thresholding
