Kalman filter to estimate tempo from successive frames?

 Awesome, thanks for the link! I watched the two Youtube demos there, and the timing is not too bad. The viewer indicates 60 fps, so 16 ms per frame. That would also be a limiting factor of course.

Has anybody ever tried pointing a video camera at the piano roll and do some real-time machine vision type of recognition? Would the resolution (i.e. timing) be good enough?
