Movement Analysis of Cue Sports

JMAC7

New to forum. Have previously used accelerometer to analyse a professional cue sports player. Anyone here or know of similar tech applied to cue sports. 

Thanks

  • Welcome! I´m sure you can do object detection/tracking, check OpenVINO

    Had a quick search and no related projects. You are on to something as while the cue does the work the errors are in delivery all part of biomechanics. Elbow shoulder wrist head movements. Tension is a factor as in the pressure of competing and clutching jabbing as opposed to smooth timing. Did see some dot systems that use internal accelerometers and video calibration though for semi professional at $15k. Your idea though could work out cheaper and may even capture cue movement from video footage. So could record signature swings of professional players and compare to or copy for novices to learn. Timing appears a critical requirement for position control and importantly for eliminating sidemovement in the practice swings. Thanks for suggestions.
