Project Details

I have worked on this computer vision system and have experimented with many thing to make the work in the most efficient way.

The core challenge was to create an automated camera switching system during live tournaments, extracting game data through OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology.

I have experimented with various methods including Tesseract, YOLO, PaddleOCR, Qwen, Llama and lot more. I was able to optimize the pipeline to achieve optimal performance getting output in 120ms with high accuracy. This was essential for live broadcasting where delays could significantly impact viewer experience.

This project was complex, although many people have tried to do this, no one has yet achieved it. I had worked a lot on this project and was glad to deliver it.
