> That photo is not Belle, or at least not the Belle machine that the article
is about.

The photo shows the piece-sensing (by tuned resonant circuits)
chess board that Joe Condon built before he and Ken built the
harware version of Belle that reigned as world computer chess
champion for several years beginning in 1980 and became the
first machine to earn a master rating.
