Automatic Tracking Method for Sports Video Analysis

This paper addresses the implementation of an advanced visual-based tennis sports video analysis system. Firstly, a white pixel-fraction based method is used to detect the significant frames that include the tennis court. In addition, we employ the temporal correlation between two consecutive frames to track the court location within a local search area. Furthermore, we propose a player segment...

Visual Tracking for Sports Applications

Visual tracking of the human body has attracted increasing attention due to the potential to perform high volume low cost analyses of motions in a wide range of applications, including sports training, rehabilitation and security. In this paper we present the development of a visual tracking module for a system aimed to be used as an autonomous instructional aid for amateur golfers. Postural in...

Tracking Multiple Sports Players for Mobile Display

An architecture system and a method for tracking people are presented for sports applications. The system’s input is video data from static camera and the output is the real world, real-time positions of the players during a sport event. This output can be used for lowbandwidth match play animations for web or wireless display, and for analysis of fitness and tactics of the teams and players. F...

Mathematical Analysis of Optimal Tracking Interval Management for Power Efficient Target Tracking Wireless Sensor Networks

In this paper, we study the problem of power efficient tracking interval management for distributed target tracking wireless sensor networks (WSNs). We first analyze the performance of a distributed target tracking network with one moving object, using a quantitative mathematical analysis. We show that previously proposed algorithms are efficient only for constant average velocity objects howev...
