We are not the first to ask these questions, leaving me to wonder ...

Perhaps contacting the producers of AlphaGo and Surrounding Game would give you some background information on how to submit a concept and then push for funding and green lighting.

I do not know for certain but I would presume the method of producing glass stones is similar to that used for the production of glass marbles with a slight modification of the spiral forming screws that would from biconvex blobs instead of spheres.
