Some things are too fragile for me to handle, I'm afraid.

Days since I last messed up my Nextcloud instance: 0

Well, looks like all I had to do is switch to OpenCV's `AffineStitcher` (instead of `Stitcher`) and tweak some parameters \o/

I'm not very knowledgeable in computer graphics, is there a way I can automagically stitch my images without having them distorted?

Does someone know about automatic stitching of microscope photos?

I've tried using Xpano and opencv's Stitching module but they assume a sort of spherical/fisheye/mercator/etc. projection, which is noit my case, i'ts all planar. Because of that, the stitched image is weidrly distorted.

Sooo this stop indicator on the bus has better specs than my daily-driver Thinkpad. Maybe it's a sign I should think of getting an upgrade.

Just finished setting up my own Immich server and uploading my first bulk of photos. I'm amazed by the (local) model enabling smart search.

Like being able to search for pictures with keywords like "cute ginger cat" or "beer at bar with XXX" is amazing.

Sooo... Preliminary result: this issue of my university's student-led newspaper was printed using an HP printer. And we came to this conclusion using nothing but tracking data hidden on the paper!

Zooming in into block A, we can decode it into 3-0-2-1 (top to bottom, indices from right to left, according to the paper)

Another clue we're onto something: the paper states blocks A and B (upper left and right) hold the same data, assumed by experimental correlation to correspond to a manufacturer-unique code.

I got recommended to have a look at https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3206004.3206019

Looks like what is described in the paper as "pattern 2" pretty much matches the structure I got from sample #1!

- large red rectangle: (upper part of) pattern unit
- dots in orange: marking points
- green lines: parity bits
- pink lines: data bits
- black rectangles: empty zones

After I got the images under UV light, I started the tedious work of highlighting the points (will automatize this at some point)

@spezialK Thanks for the paper, that's pretty much what I was looking for!
