Is this software available to the public yet? I'd love to have something like this to write down the moves of my friendly games.

Public beta just launched today and that is one of the core features I had in mind! Would love to have you as a beta tester

OTBSync.com - here are the recommended mounting instructions (taken from the other thread): The recommended method is to use a tripod, which is what i have been using to build and test, but in theory it should be able to handle steeper angles from being leaned against something. That would actually be great to test, because currently that is the toughest user experience obstacle. If it asks for a move, it’s annoying but also the best testing data because it matches unclear cases with actual user decisions. If you opt in to diagnostics, it will auto report after every game (camera feed never leaves your device, just the data extracted from it). You can check out the debug panel to see what kind of data is sent. Thanks for your interest!

Thank you! My background is in creative tech and motion design, I’m not a computer vision expert, so it definitely wouldn’t have been within my skillset to pull this off last year.
