Github repositories
- mtszkw/foosball
Foosball is an open-source application designed for processing and analyzing video recordings of table soccer games. Created by students for academic purposes, it utilizes Aruco markers to detect the table, track the ball, and identify red and blue players. The application also incorporates a scoring system based on ball motion and position. To use Foosball, you'll need a C++17 compiler, OpenCV version 3.4.1, and CMake version 3.10.0 or higher. After building the project, an executable binary file will require a JSON configuration file for operation. The website provides a demonstration video and screenshots showcasing different stages of processing.

It provides detailed usage instructions, including installation with Nix and best practices for organizing and converting audiobooks. Additionally, an alternative tool called "tone" is mentioned, but m4b-tool remains actively developed.
