DartsAI
DartsAI (Marlo Saslona & Pablo Schmücker) · Germany · Website
iOS, AndroidA free app from two German developers that scores steel-tip darts with the camera of your own phone or tablet, placed in front of the board. According to the privacy policy, board images are sent to the developers' servers in the EU for recognition, so camera scoring needs an internet connection. Manual and voice scoring are included; an optional Pro upgrade adds analytics.
- Board on the wall
- Phone or tablet on a stand
