number sensing

bureljb2:
I am working on a project that can take a picture of a analog dial and read the numbers off of it. Any ideas on how I can do this? Or if an arduino would be able to do it.

If you need to move the camera under computer control the Arduino would be a good way to do that, but for the image processing you won't find the Arduino any help - it's the sort of thing that is easily done on a PC, though.
