Body: <p>I want to play online chess with a real chess board.  I learned that lichess can read the opponent's moves out loud, so I don't have to stare at the screen, which is a good start.  Now I need a way to send my moves to the PC.</p>

Comments.Text: I could also make the move on the virtual board if I wanted, but the goal is to use a real board to play online chess.  My question should be clear as I've indicated exactly what kind of tool I'm looking for.  If you don't understand my motivation that's fine, but my motivation is not essential to the question I'm asking.

Comments.Text: on a side note, the lichess devs implmented a dgt board connect with lichess online server which is cool, https://lichess.org/dgt, Now they have not done any CV stuff on it, and a digital board will be required for relying the moves. How accurate do you think CV will be? Any chances of false positives.

  I want to play online chess with a real chess board. I learned that lichess can read the opponent's moves out loud, so I don't have to stare at the screen, which is a good start. Now I need a way to send my moves to the PC.
