摘要:
Device, system, and method of computer vision, object tracking, and image analysis; particularly suitable or configured for analysis of images or videos of tennis. A device includes two adjacent and co-located cameras, oriented at an angle of 20 to 120 degrees relative to each other, capturing a combined field-of-view that covers at least 75 percent of an entirety of a tennis court. A processor analyzes the captured images or video using computer-vision algorithms, and detects a ball bounce event and its properties. Insights are generated with regard to the performance of one or more of the participating players.
摘要:
A variable-color region (106) of a football-playing or baseball/softball-playing structure of an information-presentation structure extends to an exposed surface (102) at a surface zone (112) and normally appears along it as a principal color. An impact-dependent portion (138) of the variable-color region responds to an object (104) impacting the zone at an object-contact area (116) by temporarily appearing along a closely matching print area (118) of the zone as changed color materially different from the principal color. For football, the zone typically adjoins an end or side line (1446 or 1448) to help determine whether the object, typically a person's shoe, impacted the surface “in” or “out”. For baseball/softball, the zone typically adjoins a foul line (1506) to help determine whether the object, a baseball/softball, impacted the surface “fair” or “foul”.
摘要:
A variable-color region (106) of an information-presentation structure extends to an exposed surface (102) at a surface zone (112) and contains multiple variable-color cells (404), each extending to a part (406) of the zone. The cells normally appear along their parts of the zone as a principal color. Each cell that meets cellular threshold impact criteria in response to an object (104) impacting the zone at an object-contact area (116) temporarily becomes a criteria-meeting cell that temporarily appears along its part of the zone as changed color materially different from the principal color. A group of less than all the cells usually constitute criteria-meeting cells. The surface parts of the criteria-meeting cells form a print area (118) that closely matches the object-contact area in size, shape, and location. The color-change capability helps in making in/out calls in sports such as tennis.
摘要:
Systems for detecting a successful field goal are described herein. More specifically, the systems are directed at automated detection for a field goal attempt. The systems evaluate whether the football was kicked within the designated area (e.g., above the cross bar and between the two upright poles). The detection is performed through the use of cameras, lasers and detectors associated with the field goal post. In this way, the systems assist referees in determining the success of the field goal attempt.

摘要:
Provided is a target for golf practice. The target for golf practice includes a body, a sensing unit, a visual unit, and a controller. The sensing unit is disposed in the body to sense a trajectory and a speed of a driven golf ball and an impact of the golf ball on the body. The visual display unit is disposed in the body to visually display a result of a movement of the golf ball sensed by the sensing unit through flickering. The controller calculates the result of the movement of the golf ball by the sensing unit to control the flickering of the visual display unit.
摘要:
A table tennis blade for playing table tennis with a ball includes a handle, a paddle extending from the handle having a generally circular configuration, one or more sources of light mounted to the handle or the paddle and/or a sensor mounted to the handle and/or the paddle. The sensor may be in communication with the light and may be configured to illuminate the light when the paddle strikes the ball.
摘要:
A device capable of automatically detecting game actions that take place in the vicinity of a goal for sports or activities in which the objective is to make a projectile enter the goal. The device is suitable for triggering, always in an automatic manner and in real time, audio or visual animations suited to the game situation thus detected. A method for processing information suitable for qualifying a game action according to information gathered from various types of sensors placed in the playing area is also described.
摘要:
An electronic scoring system for use in a variety of martial arts (including traditional styles of martial arts, mixed martial arts, weapons based martial arts, mixed weapons based martial arts or the fighting arts generally). The scoring system allows an objective determination of the force, location and effectiveness of forces applied during competition, without the need for electric weaponry.
