But... why is your title "useless"? Seems essential to me!
I wonder though.. can it sync with my smart shoes?

I was going to order one but seems they're sold out! Drat!
[edit]
I wonder if they make chop sticks with anti-slurp technology?

in some Asian countries slurping noodles is supposed to show that you are enjoying them, or respect the cook, still alive or whatever
sooo, do they have these that amplify the slurp?
or perhaps add fake slurps for the anorexics? ... disguise vomit sounds for the bulimics?
heck, it needs to be IOT, can have a whole play list of effects.
...time these smart inventors got more multicultural[^]

You can just set the media file to play on your phone to a noodle-slurping sound effect.
In fact, I think I'll do that anyway, and just play it without buying the fork (which, unlike me, is not compatible with Alexa).
That will really set the tone, when I'm eating chips or rice pudding.

Good to hear that, but you must be careful[^], unless you want to find out what a coccyx is.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Well happy birthday young man, I'm glad to hear 0x40 is the new 40 that would make me 0x45. Yay!
But why do I feel like I'm 0x60?

Probably not enough bacon, is my guess...

I guess the bacon supplement pills aren't enough?

Never enough! Besides, when you fry them, they tend to pop, and fly out of the pan.

Your Order 4 shape reminds me of some results I was getting on an SVG generating control I was working on a few years ago. I didn't have a great algorithm for tracing. And then I set it aside when I couldn't figure out a way to determine inside or outside of complex shapes.

It is not easy!
But I am getting so close!
You might be happy with the winding number though?
Winding number - Wikipedia
But I am trying to find the outline.. winding number leaves hole inside the shape!

Thanks for the suggestion on Winding Number. I've never heard of it and it looks promising if I follow down some of the links and get the Maths that go along with them. I'll skip the part about string theory though.
I made a fairly successful tracer that first found a pixel that was "black" or "not white" and then by braille, followed the edge of the shape until it got back to where it started. Good Luck with yours

Nice work
Following up on a reply I posted a week or so ago to your original post:
Here is a hand-drawn image of rectangles and circles done by my pet arthritic hamster - pet hamster's drawing of circles and rectangles[^] and here is the result of a weekend or so of work done on detecting rectangles and circles - Computer generated guess of rectangles and circles[^]
What I am trying to do is much simpler than your examples - for my blob detection I however don't rely on math(that spelling will annoy a few people ) but, to put it simply, I use a method where I scan the page several times looking for how close edges are to each other in order to distinguish blobs.
For circle detection I draw a box around the blobs and then cut off each of the four corners, of the boxes, with a triangle and the code determines how many pixels are within each triangle - hamster's drawing with detected blobs in rectangles with triagles at edges[^].
Then using a pre-determined sensitivity the code guesses at what is a circle and what is a rectangle.
One recommended way of detecting circles is to measure how close the borders are to the centre of the blob, however I found that with my arthritic hamster's circles being so poor, in some cases circles were being detected as rectangles - my usual go for a walk and think of how to solve the problem led to the triangle solution.

Nice man. I have never done any image recognition, good work!
But yeah my problem is a geometry one... I fixed one bug, I got 50% shape most of the time now...
Tomorrow it should work...
|
|
|
|

Geometry and image recognition are very closely related because they both deal with shapes and rules regarding those shapes.
Do you think you might write an article once you are done? I would be interested in seeing and reading it.
(I am thinking of maybe writing something once I have tidied up my work)
