1. An apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor; and
at least one memory storing executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to;
process image data that includes an image of an object;
determine a first size of the object;
compare the first size to a threshold;
determine that a first user is in possession of the object if the first size meets or exceeds the threshold, anddetermine that the first user is not in possession of the object if the first size is less than the threshold.

Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods for determining when an athlete is in possession of a ball by analyzing image data are provided. A camera is worn by an athlete and is turned on when the athlete is in proximity of a ball. The camera is used to generate an image of a ball. The size of the ball is determined and compared to a threshold. The athlete is considered to be in possession of the ball when the size of the image exceeds the threshold.
