Spot The Difference quiz machine hustler for Android.
The synopsis is to create an Android application that can use the phone's build in camera to take a photo of a quiz machine whilst playing Spot The Difference, and immediately detect the difference between the two halves of the photo.
Checklist:
Write/find an algorithm that will competently detect differences in the two halves of the image.Firstly, it has to try and minimise the imprecision of photography, so differing light, skews, etc, between the two halves of the image.Once aligned and normalised, it must calculate differences in the two images, be that in the colour or actual lines and shapes.Finally, it should display these in such a way that they are obvious to the human eye (under the intense pressure of a timed round!)
- Incorporate the algorithm into a simple one-button, one-function app.
- Integrate it with the Android camera interface.
- It should be fast, these rounds fly by and we can't be waitin' 5 seconds for it to do it's thang.
- It should be done by
