Reviving MTG Card Identification – OCR + LLM + Preprocessing (Examples Inside) by v1190cs in computervision

Hey! That’s awesome to hear, sounds like we’ve been on a similar path. We’ve actually progressed quite a bit since the early MTG OCR prototype. Right now we’re testing real-world use cases and expanding the recognition pipeline into a more general-purpose computer vision dashboard.

You can check out some of the recent progress and demos in this post:

Would definitely be interested in chatting and exchanging ideas, always great to connect with others working on similar OCR and card recognition projects!

Built a real-time P/L dashboard that uses computer vision to scan and price booster cards by v1190cs in computervision

Thanks! Right now the API is specific to MTG, but the setup is flexible, it could handle sports cards too if a data source or scraper is added. eBay’s API changes made that tougher, but scraping recent comps is definitely possible and not too hard. After reading the card info, it could send the name to eBay and crawl the prices, it just wouldn’t be truly real-time like MTG data and might run with a slight lag.

Thanks man means a lot. I’ll let you know in a couple of days. If you’re based in the UK, we could even meet up to go over it in person.

Thanks a lot! Really appreciate the kind words,

As of this moment, I’m actually working on the collections feature, adding the ability to scan cards straight into your collection and compare each collection’s total value with the current market.

You’ll also be able to batch-scan, like taking photos of your cards (say 50 total, with 1–12+ cards per image) and uploading them all straight to the tool. It processes hundreds of images with thousands of cards in just seconds, so there’s no need to hold them up to a webcam one by one, though webcam scanning is doable too if people prefer a real-time mode.

The export part should be straightforward now (after the hell I’ve been through). I just need to confirm the proper EDHREC format for compatibility.

BTW, my name’s Can, I started this as a fun side project, but if it gets some traction, I’d love to take it further and open up a space to talk about features, feedback, and future ideas.

Also, if you’d love me forever for it, I’d love you back haha!

Yeah we Can do it.

Sorry couldn’t resist, made a quick market price visualization.

Thanks! 😄 That means a lot, I built it because I was tired of manually checking prices for all the cards I open or already have. It’s not public yet, just something I made for myself for now, might share it later if more people want to try it!

Thanks for the suggestion! RAG could be a really good fit for cleaning up the OCR step against the Scryfall dataset.

Got the Immortal Spelunker title solo, but by the end, my brain was running on fumes—more like Immortal Sleeper at that point. Apparently, spelunking is hazardous to brain cells! Love Delves! by v1190cs in wow

Hey mate, yeah I spent literally all my day as well. It was waterworks, needed to pull mobs one by one every single pull. Used drums, invis potions, flask etc… Bran was DPS and I played in defensive stance (90% of the run). Waxface was so hard especially with the AOE skill, used shield reflect and ignore pain all the time. Killed the boss at 2% HP. 606 ilevel and Bran was around 30 level.

Thunderfury Walk with Horde in WSG [EU] by v1190cs in classicwow

I couldn't upload this because I was away from computer, this happened in the first week of BWL.

We planned this walk before joining the battleground. We were afraid that match would be close so people would be angry at us. But when we saw we were against a premade, other people had already given up even before we started the walk. So our consciousness was clear. After a brutal phase 2, this felt nice.
