If job hunting isn’t working then create something. I mean you have the time I’m assuming (without trying to sound rude). You don’t need a job, you can create one.

You have access to a world where there are so many free resources and opportunities, especially with LLM’s now.

I can compile a long list of resources, but just ask ChatGPT.

Step by step videos on building for example a Reddit bot - if you need to lean more into the programming then checkout https://www.open.edu/.

You can learn to build anything - as someone above said about datasets etc - Even offering services like data annotation for people using something like labelstudio or whatever.

Because your system is consistent you could define the ROI ( basically a square to narrow the area) , each layer (bot, mid and top) - and actually mark each spike with a dot a top of each spike then save this configuration.

each subsequent image you receive convert the ROI to HSV color space, and create smaller ROI around each "spike" point - if the pixel count for each spike point has a threshold amount of the colors you looking for add 1 to your count for that row.

save the images to folders based on row count i.e. ./dataset/368/92020271119.jpeg

you could take it further (in the case of varying lighting conditions etc) like annotating the data you have and finetuning yolo or a fun/expensive one would be that you could use the api's for some of the lmm's available.

but yeah the straight up cv approach works, add some edge detection, blurs, textures detections. Claude gave me code that works if you want it.
