I wrote a program that turns the feed it receives from your webcam in ASCII art. It’s open source: you can find the code on Github.

    It seems to be broken.

    Update: it works on my desktop, but not on my phone or laptop.

    When it does work, it’s pretty good, though it could use some control to tune in exposure to pick up darker areas.

      Correct, it may not work on mobile because the font size is 6pt and the line may be too wide for a phone. That’s something I should fix. The exposure, however, probably just needs a slider to increase or decrease what is considered black.

      Thanks for the honest feedback :)
