So with (very) little money spent I have made myself a box to house a video camera and mirror in order to get underneath projection for this project. It's not the prettiest of React-Tables and the like but it does the job nicely. Got a deep plastic storage box, drilled a few holes here and there for cables and then gaffer taped a mirror and camera holders into place. I managed to get full coverage of the box and with the aid of an inside light it illuminates nicely so all the symbols get detected well. To start off with i was using a plain glass top for my symbols to be placed upon but I was having a few issues with lighting from above and below in the form of glare that would make certain areas undetectable for the symbols. Fortunately I stumbled upon a piece of perspex which happened to be already frosted and it works prefectly. Just need to spray the inside of the box white to disperse some of the light so its not as harsh in the one spot.
Here are some pics....
