8-ball, corner pocket, off side wall

No matter how much I study physics or play pool, I still am horrible.  Some clever students at Georgia Tech University helped solve my inability to play pool with a projector, mirrors, e-Box 2300 and Visual Studio!

They used a key-stoning algorithm to correct for camera location and some visual tracking systems to get the system up and running.

Best of all they made it open source!

My impression was, the guys in the video spend too much time in front of a keyboard and not enough time playing pool
