Autonomous chess-playing robotic arm using Raspberry PI

摘要

Chess is one of the most ancient and challenging board games. Recently many chess programs have been developed for computers. In this project, an autonomous chess-playing robotic arm which uses OpenCV for computer vision is implemented and an open source engine is used to predict the optimal moves. A raspberry PI and a camera module are used for computer vision to detect the chess board, and a robotic arm controlled by the PI is designed to pick and place chess pieces and make moves predicted by the engine.
