Race For The Galaxy board game scorer for Android with recognition ability.
This is a little homebrew application for Android based phones which goal is to help Race For The Galaxy game players to calculate their total victory points fast. The main idea is to make your phone to recognize cards you have played and show you the total score and other statistics.
All three expansion packs are supported. Prestige counter can be enabled using application menu.
To run this application OpenCV Manager must be installed.
Take your phone horizontally so that red reset button is on the left and blue chips-increment button is on the right. Point it to the cards placed on the table. Try not to be too close, normally it should be able to recognize 8 card laying in 2 rows from the single frame. Newly recognized cards are outlined with green, others are outlined with red.
Card can be recognized only when it is in more or less upward position. Rotated card will not be recognized.
Add chips by pressing the chips button.
Press red reset button to clear recognized cards list and to reset chips counter.
This project is open-source and non-profitable, however it contains art which belongs to Rio Grande Games and Race For The Galaxy designer Tom Lehmann.

Works great! Very useful.
Great scoring app! Works well on a Galaxy s2 and s4 Alien Artifacts is now included! It reads the image, not the text title, so those with foreign versions of the game can also make use of this. It works well enough that I pointed my camera at images of the cards on a computer screen and it even picked up those (although you may have to enlarge them)! However, beware if you're in a dimly lit area. I do wish there was a way to just enter the number of VP tokens, instead of having to tap say, 26 times to assign yourself 26 VP. However, it shouldn't be too hard to calculate that rest yourself with everything else done for you. A way to enter a numpad and/or a long press to -1 unit would be nice, though not a top priority. OTOH, there appears to be a bug with Alien Survey Technology and Galactic Seti Survey... if you're NOT playing with the orb scenario, the former is only supposed to give you 1pt from the latter since you ignore all of the survey team powers. If playing with the orb scenario, the former gets you 2pts from the latter now.
Handy and fun It does most of the work, but you still need to count all chips manually. Amazing photo recognition of cards. So impressive that I assume it must be possible to scan a pool of points too. There is a bug in card points for prestige. Separate points for goals would be nice. All input should be adjustable up/down.
Wow This is amazing. No more adding up VP at the end of a game.
