    I couldn’t find it in the article, but I skimmed the paper, and it looks like they only used a camera for input where the ball is in relation to everything.

    My problem is it seems like they only used one single board configuration.

    Can it do multiple varieties, with different wall spacing and such? If they get a human who’s good at these things and can do multiple layouts quickly, and a computer can do the same with randomized layouts, I’ll be more impressed.

    As for whether you could automate it, sure you could with other (non optical camera) sensors to detect where the ball is at all times but doing it with just software and a camera is still mildly interesting.
