1 The described system is an autopilot for the pinball machine "Mary Shelley's Frankenstein".
2 A Raspberry Pi with attached camera is mounted above the pinball machine and the computer is connected to the triggers of the pinball machine to allow for their actuation.
3
4 The different parts of the system interact in the following way. From the live camera footage a ball position is extracted in a series of image processing steps (see [[doc:Image ProcessingBall Detection]]).
5 This pixel position is then transformed into a [[doc:World Coordinate System]] for further processing and passed to the [[doc:SCChart Controller]], which is the main logic component of the system.
6 To allow for timely reactions the [[doc:SCChart Controller]] calls the [[doc:Ball Physics]], which performs a ball trajectory prediction.
7 \\For a quick overview on how to build and run the system see [[doc:Dependencies and Compilation]].
