Disclosed is system and method for measuring the tension of a tennis net, and, alternatively or in addition, for determining if a service let occurs via the measuring of the net tension. The disclosed embodiments measure a force exerted on the center-strap or the singles stick by the net. In these embodiments, the measured force provides an accurate reflection of the tension of the net.

A machine implemented method for simulated sports training includes the steps displaying a simulated environment having one or more virtual objects of a sporting event; displaying to a user a moving object in the simulated environment in accordance with object path data representing an object path and conditions of motion of the moving object as a function of time; correlating soundscape data to the object path data, the soundscape data being dependent on both object path of the moving object in the object path and the conditions of motion; and outputting sound to the user based on the correlated soundscape data either before or during displaying to the user the moving object, thereby providing spatial auditory clues for assisting tracking eye movements of the user to train the user to anticipate or recognize a trajectory of the moving object.

A game set having a flying disc, a goal mount, a target loop configured to attach to the goal mount, the target loop having a loop surface with a solid outer portion that surrounds an open middle portion, the open middle portion having at least one distinct opening, each distinct opening defining a scoring portal, and a score controller having at least one score sensor configured to detect the passage of the flying disk through each scoring portal, a vibration sensor configured to detect the target loop being impacted and wherein the score controller is configured to emit an alert when a sensor is triggered. The score controller may be further comprised of a viewing camera, microphone, game clock, scoreboard, distance verification device, loudspeaker, score buzzer, score indicator light, battery, and wireless transmitter. The score controller may communicate with a game application on a device, enabling “physical virtual” play.

A virtual reality (VR) system comprising a head-mounted display (HMD) and handheld controller set is enhanced to provide a more realistic end user VR experience, e.g., for boxing or other interactive training. In this approach, and in lieu of simply establishing a boundary area for the VR experience, the user also maps a position of a real-world object into a reference frame of the VR environment. This mapping is facilitated using the handheld controller itself, e.g., as positioned in a backwards-facing manner on the user's forearm. The real-world object is then simulated in the 3D VR environment as rendered by the VR HMD, and the user interacts with the real-world object (or its simulation) to provide a more enjoyable and useful interactive experience.

A display method for outputting a result of scoring for a performance of a scoring competition, the display method includes obtaining input information regarding to the scoring competition, obtaining a recognition result of a plurality of elements included in the performance, determining a difficulty level of each of the plurality of elements based on the recognition result and a first rule, limiting a target to be used for the scoring to a part of the plurality of elements according to the difficulty level of each of the plurality of elements, and outputting a scoring screen that includes a first display area displaying the plurality of elements and the difficulty level, a second display area for an aggregate result, third display area for a score of the performance directed to the limited part of the elements, and a fourth display area for a 3D model of the athlete.

A scoring system of automatically detecting body motion includes a storage, a first motion sensor, and a processor. The storage is configured to store standard motion signal data corresponding to a multimedia signal, which the standard motion signal data includes a plurality of scoring segments, and the plurality of scoring segments are generated according to beat data of the multimedia signal and the standard motion signal data. The first motion sensor is configured to receive a first sensing signal, which the first sensing signal is generated by a set of user-motion according to the multimedia signal. The processor is configured to recognize user's motion signal of the first sensing signal and acquire to-be-scored-motion signal data corresponding to the plurality of scoring segments; and compare the to-be-scored-motion signal data corresponding to each of the plurality of scoring segments with the standard motion signal data to generate a score.

The disclosure relates to a system for evaluating movement of a body of a user. The system may include a video display, one or more digital cameras, and a processor. The processor may control the one or more cameras to generate images of at least the part of the body over a period of time. The processor may estimate a position of a plurality of joints of the body. The processor may receive a selection of a tracked pose, and determine, from the plurality of joints, a set of joints associated with the tracked pose. The processor may generate at least one joint vector connecting joints in the set of joints, and assign, based on changes in the joint vector over the period of time, a form score to a performance of the tracked pose. The processor may then generate a user interface that depicts the form score.

The invention provides methods and system for providing optimized collection of data to detect an occurrence in a live event. A request is transmitted by a server, based on the machine learning, to activate at least one edge device located in a live event. Upon receipt of the request from the server, the at least one edge device captures at least one data of the live event. The data is captured by the at least one edge device using at least one sensor. The captured data is then transmitted by the one edge device to at least one node unit or directly to a server. The node unit may transmit the captured data or a processed data to the server. Thereafter, the server processes the data received by at least one of edge device or the node unit to detect an occurrence in the live event.

Methods and systems for remote multiplayer gameplay are disclosed. An example method can include joining a multiplayer interactive physical game including first and second players competing in an activity; capturing a first game video of a first player in a first play of the multiplayer interactive physical game, using a first camera on a first mobile computing device in a first gaming area; determining a first object flow associated with the first player from the first game video, by performing an algorithm on one or more frames of the first game video to detect one or more key points of the first player; generating a first analytic based on the first object flow; receiving a second analytic associated with the second player in a second gaming area; and generating a feedback to the first player based on the first analytic or the second analytic.
