Utility
Motion based pre-processing of two-dimensional image data prior to three-dimensional object tracking with virtual time synchronization
17 Jan 23
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for pre-processing image data before 3D object tracking includes, in at least one aspect, a method including: receiving, at a first computer, image frames from a camera; identifying, by the first computer, locations of interest in the image frames; finding sequences of the locations, wherein each of the sequences satisfies a motion criterion for locations identified in at least three image frames from the camera; and sending output data for the sequences of the locations to a second computer for processing the sequences in the output data by interpolating between specified 2D positions in specific image frames for the sequences, using timestamps of the specific image frames, to produce a virtual 2D position at a predetermined point in time, which is usable for constructing a 3D track of a ball in motion.

Utility
Method for determining spin of a projectile
29 Nov 22
A method for estimating a spin of a projectile, the method comprising obtaining from a radar transceiver a first time series comprising observations of a radial velocity of the projectile relative to the radar transceiver, calculating, from the first time series, a center velocity of the projectile, extracting from the first time series a second time series comprising a variation in the first time series around the calculated center velocity estimating a frequency of the second time series, and determining the spin of the projectile WO based on the estimated frequency of the second time series.

Utility
Three dimensional object tracking using combination of radar data and two dimensional image data
22 Nov 22
Methods and systems include, in at least one aspect: obtaining from a camera 2D image data of an object, obtaining from a radar device radar data of the object, combining the radar data and the 2D image data to produce 3D location information of the object, and modeling a 2D trace of the object using the 2D image data by finding an initial version of the 2D trace, receiving an initial portion of the 3D location information, extending the initial portion of the 3D location information in accordance with physical-world conditions to find at least one 3D location beyond the initial portion of the 3D location information, projecting the at least one 3D location into a 2D image plane of the camera to locate 2D region, and processing the 2D region in the 2D image data to extend the 2D trace of the object in flight.

Trajectory Extrapolation and Origin Determination for Objects Tracked In Flight
10 Nov 22
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, estimating a systemic error for observation(s), wherein the systemic error affects observed ball positions, estimating a stochastic error associated with the observation(s), wherein the stochastic error affects an angle of a trajectory determined from observed ball positions, combining the estimated systemic and stochastic errors to form error measure(s) for the distance measure(s), identifying one of the physical locations as an origin for the golf ball when the error measure(s) satisfy a criterion, and waiting for additional observations of the golf ball by the sensor(s) when the error measure(s) do not satisfy the criterion.
