    Idea #1: Stop SHOUTING!

    Idea #2:

    Here's a general plan:

    1. Gather labeled examples of the characters which need to be recognize
    2. Clean up the data (center the characters individually within the frame), eliminate noise, etc.
    3. Extract useful attributes from the frame for each character, such as horizontal and vertical pixel position mean and standard deviation, projection profiles (row and column means), etc.
    4. Train a recognizer (linear discriminant, neural network, k-nearest neighbor, logistic regression, etc.) to associate the label of the character with the extracted attributes
    5. Test on new character data
    6. Celebrate because you're done!
