It's mostly glue (but some of it is special glue).
Oddly enough, digit recognition was one of the harder parts. iOS11's Vision API has character recognition but it only gives you a bounding box, it doesn't do the OCR!
So for that I ended up ripping up a whole bunch of Sudoku puzzle books from the second hand book store and scanning them in to create a dataset. Then I trained my own nerual network in Keras and converted it to CoreML.
The actual ARKit part was really easy, even for me who has never done iOS programming before.
