This software solves any valid problem created by the 'Genius Square' board game
I wanted to create software to solve the Genius Square board game. The game is a 6x6 board with 9 pieces that you have to fit into the board. The pieces are different shapes and sizes, and the board has a few fixed pieces. The goal is to fit the pieces into the board in such a way that the pieces do not overlap and that the empty spaces are filled.
I then decided to use computer vision to read in the state of a board and solve it. I don't have any boards to hand though so I have used paper in this instance.
Run the main file and put replace the path variable with the path to your own image.
If you want to solve a random problem, run the random_solver.py file.
