| Description: |
More and more, sports are relying on technology to improve the sportsman performance, not only individually but also within a team, by identifying and evaluating the parameters that define a good movement and/or a good tactic. The aim of this project is to study and perform image analysis of indoor sports events (like handball and basketball) through a non invasive automatic image processing system. A system like this can be a very useful source of information not only to coaches but also to teachers, since it will aid them in the study of sports ’ teaching, by providing a systematic approach to sports ’ analysis. It’s a very ambitious project due to its complexity, since it involves following individually several similar objects that are constantly moving, changing in shape as seen by the cameras in the presence of partial overlapping and/or occlusion. The steps taken towards the implementation of such a system include a preliminary study of the requirements, solutions and technologies in order to develop a robust engineering solution. Several colour image processing techniques are used namely background subtraction, blob |
