Inspiration

Resistors very small and difficult to read the color bands to determine their resistance. It is especially difficult with those who have difficulty seeing as well as those who are color blind.

What it does

Upload a picture of a resistor, select the resistor, and get the resistance value.

How we built it

We built the application with Next.JS as our frontend framework, Auth0 for authentication, Flask for our backend API, Segment Anything by Meta for object detection and masking, and OpenCV for image manipulation.

Challenges we ran into

Color classification is a difficult problem, and one that might not have a straight-forward implementation to solve. The project was ambitious for a weekend, especially due to our limited knowledge of computer vision.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud to have a website that can mask an object a user selects.

What we learned

What's next for Ohm-Snap

We hope to have a basic color classifier to eventually begin predictions for resistance values.
