An automatic pool playing robot - how hard could it be? Turns out harder than I thought. It took me quite a while to work through all the difficulties of this project but when it all finally came together is so worth it. To my surprise the most interesting aspect of this project is using the cue to play real games of pool over the internet. Let me know if you think twitch plays billiards would be worthwhile...

@@Xadov I don't know about that. This project involved so many different problems from engineering. mathematics, physics, computer science etc. To be sufficiently knowledgeable in all these fields that you can solve these problems in a reasonable amount of time is pretty hard. And I see potential for dividing these problems so that different persons can figure them out. For example one guy can take care of calibrating the camera system. One can be an expert on billard physics and solve the problem from which direction and with what amount of force etc should the queue hit the queueball. One person can build the queue that is capable of performing a shot in a given direction and with a given amount of force etc. Maybe 20 people is a bit much but I'm pretty sure that doing this alone is much harder.

You know what the best part of this video is?... It's not the wining shot or when all things work.. it the failures when you show how repeatedly unexpectedly we do run into problem and sometimes soo Soo small you don't even know where to look at.. but breaking it down and not giving up is the best part and to see that struggle and after that seeing the wining shot is the best feeling ... Even I as a viewer get! ❤️

Wow, so cool! Probably you already thought of this, but good pool players often look at a rack (specially when deciding on stripes or solids) and find the key ball. The best ball and angle to hit as your last to put you “on” the eight. Also, then it makes sense to see if you can work your way backwards, what ball to get position on the key ball? And that ball, etc. and also adjustments along the way because the cue ball doesn’t quite get where you wanted it after the shot.
