DETECTION OF INTENTIONAL CONTACT BETWEEN OBJECT AND BODY PART OF PLAYER IN SPORT

An electronic device and method for detection of intentional contact between an object and a body part of a player are provided. An electronic device receives a plurality of frames of a video from an imaging device. The electronic device tracks a movement of the object and a movement of the body part across the plurality of frames. The electronic device determines, based on the tracked movement, a frame of interest from the plurality of first frames in which degree of overlap between position coordinates of the object and position coordinates of the body part of the player exceeds an overlap threshold. The electronic device detects a contact between the object and the body part of the player based on the frame of interest. The electronic device applies a machine learning model on the frame of interest and the tracked movement to determine whether the contact is intentional.

11612362 · 2023-03-28 · ·

A system includes a minimally intrusive display system (MIDS) configured to be disposed on an eyewear. The MIDS includes a display system and a sensor system configured to provide for a sensor data. The MIDS further includes a processor configured to process the sensor data to derive a physiological measure. The processor is further configured to display, via the display system, the physiological measure, wherein the display system is disposed in the eyewear so that the physiological measure is only viewed when a user of the eyewear turns the user's pupil towards the display system at angle α from a forward direction.

System and method for targeted neurological therapy using brainwave entrainment with passive treatment
11612786 · 2023-03-28 · ·

A system and method for targeted neurological treatment using brainwave entrainment therapy with passive treatment that allows for targeted treatment of particular areas of the brain, particular neurological functions, particular neurological states, and combinations of areas, functions, and states. The system and method receive gait parameters for an individual and compare those against a database of historical gait data to determine if an onset neurodegenerative condition is present, and applies a brainwave entrainment therapy responsive to the determination of the condition. The system and method receive a neurological assessment identifying areas of the brain or neurological functions to be treated, select one or more treatment modalities and frequencies, select a treatment regimen, and apply brainwave entrainment using a treatment regimen while the subject engages in dual-task activities selected to stimulate the areas of the brain, neurological functions, or neurological states to be treated, enhanced, or altered.

Autonomous ball machines

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for autonomous tennis assistant systems having autonomous ball machines such as an autonomous and interactive tennis ball ejection robot. Example methods include determining, by a device, the position of a first player on a tennis court, determining a first target location for a first tennis ball to be ejected toward the first player, generating a trajectory for the first tennis ball to reach the first target location, and causing ejection of the first tennis ball from the tennis ball ejection robot along the generated trajectory toward the first target location. A base station may be used to provide image data for use by the tennis ball ejection robot from one or more additional vantage points.

Basketball architecture
11484759 · 2022-11-01 ·

A basketball goal system comprising a backboard assembly and suspension frame affixed to the back surface, a suspension structure connected to the suspension frame of the backboard and a goal indication system which interfaces to at least one of the suspension structure or backboard to cause an indication (of various colors) to be presented via the suspension system and/or the backboard which indication relates to the shot points associated with a shot attempted at the goal. The goal indication system causes presentation of a cue on a front surface of the backboard, which cue is of a color corresponding to shot points. The backboard elements and light emission of the suspension frame can be controlled synchronously or asynchronously.

TRAJECTORY EXTRAPOLATION AND ORIGIN DETERMINATION FOR OBJECTS TRACKED IN FLIGHT AND SENSOR COVERAGE DETERMINATION

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for 3D flight tracking of objects include a method including determining a golf ball trajectory based on observations by sensor(s), extrapolating the trajectory backward in time, calculating distance measure(s) between the extrapolated trajectory and physical locations, determining one of the physical locations to be an origin of the golf ball based on the distance measure(s) and two types of separately estimated errors, wherein a first of the two types of separately estimated errors affects ball positional error for the initial observations, and a second of the two types of separately estimated errors affects an angle of the extrapolated trajectory; and presenting golf ball data on a display device associated with the origin of the golf ball.

GOLF BALL IMAGING FOR GOLF ENTERTAINMENT VENUE
20220339513 · 2022-10-27 ·

Golf entertainment venues with a computing system configured to optically identify and track graphical images located on golf balls hit by players. The graphical image located on a golf ball can be associated with a player and the computing system can assign the player a score when that player's golf ball successfully arrives at a target area. In some embodiments, the graphical images can be printed on the golf balls using, for example, a single pass inkjet printing technique. In some embodiments, the computing system can be configured to sort golf balls based on optically identified graphical images.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR THE PRODUCTION, MANAGEMENT, SYNDICATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF DIGITAL ASSETS THROUGH A NETWORK IN A MICRO-SUBSCRIPTION-BASED PLATFORM
