A Computer Vision Based Tracking System for Indoor Team Sports

Monier E, Wilhelm P, Rückert U. A Computer Vision Based Tracking System for Indoor Team Sports. In: The fourth International Conference on Intelligent Computing and Information Systems. Cairo, Egypt; 2009.This paper presents a video tracking system for tracking players in indoor sports using two high quality digital cameras. The tracking algorithm is based on template matching technique taking into consideration closed world assumptions. The output of the system can be visualized interactively for convenient analysis of player movements. The implementation has been efficiently done as a software system that can be used by coaches and sport scientists
