Ask HN: Programmable Drones

So I'm looking to integrate Machine Learning and Computer Vision with drones.What I had in mind was having a separate computer to be the server, the drone would stream video to the server and it would use OpenCV and the like to make decisions and control the drone based on that.So that way I can just have a video stream that I can process in whatever language I want ( Python ) and then send...

Was it just a texas hold em ? Or a variation of it ? I assume being a hackathon it wasn't a vanilla texas hold em. Could you provide some more details and maybe the code ? After seeing this I'm interested to know what else you've done.
