Thread: How to recognise objects from a new window

Hi,

I'm trying to make an app that recognises the details of a poker table, eg. my hole cards, how many players, their stack and my position at the table.

Firstly, I was thinking of image processing, but I know these algoritms takes time and for this case in particulary will be very difficult. Do you have any other suggestions for doing this?

If it helps, I can upload a picture with a normal table from a random platform.


My second idea is to use the poker sotware client to obtain the infos that I need. The problem for this solution is that I'd like to remain hidden from the platform.

Thanks for your help and I'm sorry if I wasn't explicit enough. If you have unclarities, you can ask and I'll try to be more explicit.

So you want to "tap into" another program?

This looks questionable in my opinion.
