Hi everyone:
I know that for some international chess competition, you write your chess manual (scoresheet) in a carbon paper. After you finish the game, you bring away one paper and the organizer brings away another. Later on, they enter your manual (scoresheet) into the computer, so you can check it online on FIDE.
My question is , how is this enter process done? Is it by human, or do you get like a scannar to scan it, so it atoumatically transfer into digital chess manual for you? Anyone knows it? Thanks.
Hmm. I guess you are talking about game scoresheets and how they are entered into a database. I think there was a slight translation problem. Scoresheets are recorded by hand. You can also say that they are manually (by hand) recorded or hand-written.
I thought that most of the top level games used the DGT electronic digital chess boards to automatically record the game scores.
Perhaps someone more knowledgeable than I can speak to what happens with the scoresheets in tournaments that don't use electronic DGT boards. I think that organizers and or others had to manually transcribe the scoresheets, which could be a difficult job since many people have bad handwriting and people often make recording errors.
There have been multiple attempts made to develop scoresheet scanners. I did a quick Google search and found several. Handwriting recognition is pretty good at this point. However, the multiple recording errors which are still impossible for computers to resolve without some person taking the time to go back to the players or to guess what the actual moves were.
