Abstract

A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and a ball throwing management computing device that assists with intelligently throwing a ball to a dynamically detected user includes receiving health information associated with a user from a user computing device. A location and height of the user associated with the received health information is detected. A speed, a direction, a trajectory and a frequency at which the ball can be propelled to the user is determined based on the received health information and the detected location of the user without user intervention. Propelling the ball to the user based on the determined speed, direction and frequency is assisted.

Claims

1. A method for intelligently throwing a ball to a dynamically detected user, the method comprising:

receiving, by a ball throwing management computing device, health information associated with a user from a user computing device, wherein the health information further comprises a body temperature, a heart rate, and a blood pressure value, and wherein the body temperature of the user is at least ninety eight degree Fahrenheit;

detecting, by the ball throwing management computing device, a location and a height of the user associated with the received health information, wherein the user is in a dynamic state and wherein the location of the user is detected based on a relative distance to one or more boundary lines;

determining, by the ball throwing management computing device, a speed, a direction, a trajectory and a frequency at which a ball can be propelled to the user based on the received health information, the detected location, a voice command, and the height of the user without user manual intervention;

assisting, by the ball throwing management computing device, propelling the ball to the user based on the determined speed, direction and frequency; and

readjusting, by the ball throwing management computing device, the determined direction, frequency, and the speed of propelling the ball based on real time health related information and location information of the user.

2. The method as set forth in claim 1 wherein the received health information associated with the user comprises a heart rate, a body temperature, a blood pressure rate and a respiratory rate.

3. The method as set forth in claim 1 further comprising:

receiving, by a ball throwing management computing device, most recent health information associated with the user from the user computing device;

detecting, b, the ball throwing management computing device, a new location of the user associated with the received most recent health information; and

determining, by the ball throwing management computing device, a new speed, a new direction and a new frequency at which a subsequent ball can be propelled to the user based on the received most recent health in and the detected new location of the user.

4. The method as set forth in claim 3 further comprising assisting, by the ball throwing management computing device, propelling the ball the user based on the determined new speed, new direction and new frequency.

13. The method as set forth in claim 1 further comprising:

determining, by the ball throwing management computing device, a time to propel a subsequent ball to the user; and

assisting, by the ball throwing management computing device, to propel the subsequent hall to the user at the determined time.

5. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions for intelligently throwing a ball to a dynamically detected user comprising machine executable code which when executed by at least one processor, causes the processor to perform steps comprising:

receiving health information associated with a user from a user computing device, wherein the health information further comprises a body temperature, a heart rate, and a blood pressure value, and wherein the body temperature of the user is at least ninety eight degree Fahrenheit;

detecting a location and a height of the user associated with the received health information, wherein the user is in a dynamic state and wherein the location of the user is detected based on a relative distance to one or more boundary lines;

determining a speed, a direction, a trajectory and a frequency at which a ball can be propelled to the user based on the received health information, the detected location, a voice command, and the height of the user without user manual intervention;

assisting propelling the ball to the user based on the determined speed, direction and frequency; and

readjusting the determined direction, frequency, and the speed of propelling the ball based on real time health related information and location information of the user.

6. The medium as set forth in claim 5 wherein the received health information associated with the user comprises a heart rate, a body temperature, a blood pressure rate and a respiratory rate.

7. The medium as set forth in claim 5 further comprising:

receiving most recent health information associated with the user from the user-computing device;

detecting a new location of the user associated with the received most recent health information; and

determining a new speed, a new direction and a new frequency at which a subsequent ball can be propelled to the user based on the received most recent health information and the detected new location of the user.

8. The medium as set forth in claim 7 further comprising assisting propelling the ball the user based on the determined new speed, new direction and new frequency.

14. The medium as set forth in claim 5 further comprising:

determining a time to propel a subsequent ball to the user; and

assisting, to propel the subsequent ball to the user at the determined time.

9. A ball throwing management computing device comprising:

a processor;

a memory, wherein the memory coupled to the processor which are configured to execute programmed instructions stored in the memory comprising;

receiving health information associated with a user from a user computing device, wherein the health information further comprises a body temperature, a heart rate, and a blood pressure value, and wherein the body temperature of the user is at least ninety eight degree Fahrenheit;

detecting a location and a height of the user associated with the received health information, wherein the user is in a dynamic state and wherein the location of the user is detected based on a relative distance to one or more boundary lines;

determining a speed, a direction, a trajectory and a frequency at which a ball can be propelled to the user based on the received health information, the detected location, a voice command, and the height of the user without user manual intervention;

assisting propelling the ball to the user based on the determined speed, direction and frequency; and

readjusting the determined direction, frequency, and the speed of propelling the ball based on real time health related information and location information of the user.

10. The device as set forth in claim 9 wherein the received health information associated with the user comprises a heart rate, a body temperature, a blood pressure rate and a respiratory rate.

11. The device as set forth in claim 9 wherein the processor is further configured to execute programmed instructions stored in the memory further comprising:

receiving most recent health information associated with the user from the user computing device;

detecting a new location of the user associated with the received most recent health information; and

determining a new speed, a new direction and a new frequency at which a subsequent ball can be propelled to the user based on the received most recent health information and the detected new location of the user.

12. The device as set forth in claim 11 wherein the processor is further configured to execute programmed instructions stored hi the memory further comprising assisting propelling the ball the user based on the determined new speed, new direction and new frequency.

15. The device as set forth in claim 9 wherein the processor is further configured to execute programmed instructions stored in the memory further comprising:

determining a time to propel a subsequent ball to the user; and

assisting to propel the subsequent ball to the user at the determined time.
