Electronic Go Board from China

Post by tchan001 »

SL has a page on the idea of electronic go boards which are conceptualized in the West.
Things such as a netgoban with a physical board connected to a PC but this does not seem to be available beyond prototype at present.

I was looking at the latest Weiqi Tiandi (2013/18) and on the inside of the front cover was an ad for a Chinese version which looks like it connects to some type of Android tablet.
The website for the product is here.

The website even has a comparison page with other similar products. Click tab 同类对比

Looks like it's price is RMB3000 according to the comparison page. So that's like USD500 with change.

Anyways, thought you guy might be interested in this news.

From the website, the go board needs to be connected to a Windows PC via USB. (Please see the Tab installation 安装使用)
