Video of automated surface card grading in action

Interesting. How repeatable is the machine score? For example, if you ran the analysis 5 times, does the same machine score always appear?

Especially with a different input image of the same card.

So is this looking mostly at colors or is it somehow looking a three dimensional attributes - say an indentation in the card?

Also, are the detractions things that would have been present on Day 1 - when it was pulled from a pack in 1982 or are they generally things that happened to the card during the ensuing 38 years?

BTW, I really like what you are doing here.

This is why you always add the information to the long thread already about this... maybe Leon can merge them?

Keep up the great work!

No such thing as a "perfect system", but this seems like it will be a heck of a lot more consistent than humans!

Out with the old, in with the new, the future is here. There's a new sheriff in town. Great video.

How will you know if this system is better than professional graders ? Based on the information you have shared so far it is about the same. Will you determine the system is valid if it relates closely to the professional graders or if there is a big difference etc . ? So you also need good reliability ( use same card and get same grade ) and validity . How are the results so far with reliability ? Good Luck on this venture. Corners and borders for most cards should be easier I would think to program into grades.
