How about changing the background, maybe throwing in some red and white objects, and changing the lighting in the scene. Will it still work then?

@Krb68691 The application running on the video would not work correctly in such situations, but can be improved by adding some simple processing steps (or really complicated ones ;)). I'll try to run some tests for the conditions you mention.

Hi,

It is a nice project. Can you send me the code of this project?

Thanks very much

[GeoMX]

I describe the algorithm in my website, it is really simple and don't think you'll have problems implementing it.
