First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of determining a ball trajectory and a ball bounce position on a playing surface, the method comprising:
- recording a first and a second sequence of ball images before and after a ball bounce on the playing surface;
constructing a composite image of the trajectory of the ball from the first and second sequences; and
determining a bounce position of the ball from the composite image.

Abstract
Disclosed in some examples is a method, system and medium relating to determining a ball trajectory and bounce position on a playing surface. An example method includes recording a first and a second sequence of ball images before and after a ball bounce on the playing surface; constructing a composite image of the trajectory of the ball from the first and second sequences; and determining a bounce position of the ball from the composite image.
