About time this technology has been developed, and it started in the open source public domain, no less. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for your suggestion. I'll see what I can do about it. If your concern is to be able to use the phone camera instead of a webcam, then you can easily do that using apps like DroidCam or Iriun webcam.  I'm also using my phone camera instead of a webcam using DroidCam.

Great. I meant if the code is made into an app on the phone without necessitating the use of a computer, that would take the whole mobility and connectivity to a completely new level. The only thing to do would be to launch the app and have the phone face the board and play!!

Just trying to help a little more. The Raspberry Turk project is very well documented and provides a lot of free code too! https://youtu.be/lpJIBVU_WJE

Looking forward to your app(s)!!
