Have you ever been engrossed in a movie trivia game, wishing for a way to leverage technology to ace the game? Back in 2007, while playing "Scene It?" on my Xbox 360, I envisioned a system that combined a camera, computer, and innovative software to effortlessly answer the game's questions. But how could this vision be realized?

Fast forward to the present day, where a plethora of tools and frameworks are at our disposal, enabling us to harness our programming skills to build that dream application and conquer those elusive achievements.

In this session, we'll embark on a journey through the world of dotnet, exploring how we can employ OpenCV, Azure Custom Vision, ML.NET, Tesseract OCR, and more to tackle every challenge "Scene It?" presents. We'll delve into the techniques, strategies, and code that can turn this vision into reality.

But we won't stop there. We'll take it a step further when I introduce an Arduino into the mix to press the buttons for us!

Key Takeaways:
* Learn how to integrate and use powerful open-source tools like OpenCV, Azure Custom Vision, ML.NET, Tesseract OCR with dotnet.
* Understand the process of building a real-world application that interacts with a popular gaming console.
* Discover how to apply your programming skills in unique and innovative ways to solve complex problems.
