Go over FaceTime?

Post by daniel_the_smith »

So I got this new iPad, and FaceTime actually works pretty well. It made me wonder if you could set up a board with an iPad on the other side where an opponent would normally be, in such a way that the person on the other end could see both you and the board. They could set things up the same way. Then you play a game.

Anybody tried it?

I haven't yet tried setting up a board to see if it's possible to get the angle right.
That which can be destroyed by the truth should be.

I've never tried this but I have played on KGS while using a real board and having a voice chat over Skype. That was quite enjoyable.
