Goban and Grid Detection:

1. The input image is filtered and thresholded and a big quadrilateral shape is selected, sorting contours detected with cvFindContours() from OpenCV.

2. The selection can be rectified with cvGetPerspectiveTransform() and cvWarpPerspective() but using a specific procedure allow to save the original coordinates in a table at the cost of a few megabytes of ram. It should be also more performant, avoiding some unused features overhead.

3. cvHoughLines2() find lines in the rectified selection and we compute the intersections for each detected line segment.

4. The intersection is first validated when the angle formed by the intersection point and the line extremities is near 90 degrees; and other detected intersections that are less distant than ~92% of the expected grid spacing are discarded. Finally each 'cell' or group is validated when the 2 opposite corners are around 90 degrees.

5. Intersections can be mapped back to the pre-warped coordinates and vote for the original point, and we restart at step 2 with the quadrilateral found with the next threshold value.

6. The grid map is built using original point vote results, missing intersections can be evaluated mirroring relative polar coordinates.


7. Finally, we can validate the grid, or restart at step 1 with another threshold, or rectify the image again with the exact grid corners coordinates known.


Image change detection:

Using vertical and horizontal RGB components sums of a thresholded difference between a reference image and the current one,

it is easy to compute the image coordinates of a played stone

Stone detection:

When a stone is played it overlaps 1 grid square on a corner, 2 on the borders and 4 in the center.

Computing horizontal and vertical pixel sums for each grid cell or around each intersection can tell where the stone is played and reveal the color of the stone, being darker or brighter than the empty intersection region.

The intersection can also be seen on the difference image when the stone is white, that could also be used to detect the stone color.
