Nice video of Certabo board being connected to a Raspberry Pi.
At 4 min 30 seconds it shows it playing against the Mephisto MMV and at 7 min it then plays against the Mephisto Roma

As Lichess has extended their API to allow physical boards with non-bot accounts, I've started a python based CERTABO board lichess client: http://github.com/haklein/certabo-pl...ertabo-lichess

Still very fresh and rough edges, but I did play a few games as human (vs the AI) already.

First prototype of a Certabo magnetic e-board with full piece recognition.
More details as ususal at; https://www.certabo.com/

Lese ich das richtig?

Die Figuren werden trotz(!) des Magnetfeldes erkannt?
Und Sie wollen die Herausforderung annehmen, das sich die Figuren auch von selbst bewegen können?

Hi Jűrgen
It has been developed because of Certabo's involvement with Chess Boxing 🥊🥊

Do you mean


(Sorry, it's in German, but the game is a kind of chess)

I thought it was the cat stealing the pawns :-p

Hallo,

Certabo hat jetzt offiziell "CertabOdroid" angekündigt, der Droidfish App mit direkter Anbindung an das Schachbrett.

Gruß,
Lars

I did add some polish to the CERTABO lichess client, and the code worked reliable for me (tested on Fedora 31 and Red Hat 8.1). I've split the code off into a separate repository: http://github.com/haklein/certabo-lichess

I'd appreciate testing feedback (and if necessary bug reports :-) )

Here is a quick video showing the lichess board API integration:
