    摘要: Methods and systems for real-time generation of ball shot analytics are disclosed. The methods and systems perform steps for ball and posture detection, ball and posture flow generation, shot event identification and classification, and shot analytics generation based on identified shot events and shooter posture flow. Embodiments of the present invention use computer vision techniques to enable a resource-limited mobile device such as a smartphone to conduct the aforementioned steps. Also disclosed are benefits of the new methods, and alternative embodiments of implementation.

    摘要: Methods and systems for determining and classifying a number of repetitive motions in a video are described, and include the steps of first determining a plurality of images from a video, where the images are segmented from at least one video frame of the video. Next, performing a pose detection process on a feature of the images to generate one or more landmarks. Next, determining one or more principle component axes on points associated with a given landmark. Finally, determining at least one repetitive motion based on a pattern associated with a projection of the points onto the one or more principle components. In some embodiments, the disclosed methods can classify the repetitive motions to respective types. The present invention can be implemented for convenient use on a mobile computing device, such as a smartphone, for tracking exercises and similar repetitive motions.

    摘要: Methods and systems for object trajectory reconstruction are disclosed. The methods and systems perform steps of first, receiving a first trajectory in a first image space and a user's location. Next, generating at least one trajectory line based on the user's location and the first trajectory, where the trajectory line can include at least one projection point representing a projection of the object's position. And finally, for the trajectory line, determining an associated second trajectory by determining, for the projection point in the trajectory line, a distance between the object and a plane. Some embodiments of the present invention enable a resource-limited mobile device, such as a smartphone, to efficiently perform this method. Also disclosed are benefits of the new methods, and alternative embodiments of implementation.

    摘要: Methods and systems for 3D ball trajectory reconstruction are disclosed. The methods and systems perform steps of receiving a 2D ball trajectory, a shooter's on-ground foot location, and a camera projection matrix; generating on-ground trajectory line assumptions based on the shooter's on-ground foot location and the 2D trajectory; reconstructing a candidate 3D trajectory for each on-ground trajectory line assumption, by determining a ball height for each on-ground projection point in the on-ground trajectory line and by curve fitting; evaluating each candidate 3D trajectory and selecting one with a best score as the reconstructed 3D ball trajectory. Embodiments of the present invention enable a resource-limited mobile device such as a smartphone to conduct the aforementioned steps. Also disclosed are benefits of the new methods, and alternative embodiments of implementation.
