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

Lots of work has been done on cue control. It is all about speed and direction. Accelerometers are often used because they are easier to implement than velocity sensors, so the acceleration must be integrated to determine speed. If the mass of the cue equals the mass of the ball, the cue should stop on impact and the ball should acquire the speed of the cue, but of course the hand interferes with this relationship, as does the locus of impact.
