Card Scanner for a Trading Card Machine using Cardboard, a Raspberry PI and Google Cloud Platform

My children and I have amassed a large amount of Trading Cards by now. The handling, sorting, etc. is very difficult with these quantities. We have already tried it, but we gave up frustrated.

For this reason, I want to build a Trading Card Machine, which should take on different tasks. I split the machine into 3 parts.

This Video is about the 2nd part, the Card Scanner, which is the brain of the whole Trading Card Machine.
The Scanner capture, analyze and evaluate the Trading Cards.

In technical terms:

I use a Raspberry PI and the PI Cam to capture the Trading Cards
With the help of Google Cloud Platform API's (Vision and Translation) I analyze the Cards
I evaluate the Cards with the Cardmarket API
