StrikeForce technology allows broadcast network
producers and sports equipment manufacturers to provide quantitative
measurements of athletic movements such as ball speed, club
speed, launch
angle,
bat
speed and more. In mere seconds, StrikeForce technology can
automatically (without human intervention) extract the motion,
then compute and upload the desired numbers.
Seconds after a shot or a hit, StrikeForce technologies can
produce quantitative values that are either displayed on a
screen (as in broadcast applications) or
exported to a file (as in laboratory test applications). StrikeForceapplications
are customized collections of proprietary and portable Xcitex
technologies currently employed in MiDAS and ProAnalyst. StrikeForce
is customized to an application or a sport, then set into automatic
mode.
Turn it on and let it run.
StrikeForce also enables broadcast producers to overlay creative
data display graphics onto video images, allowing producers
to demonstrate swing planes, club paths,
racquet paths,
bat locations and more. Our unique technology can prepare these
graphics in seconds after receiving a director cue.
Shown above are swing planes similar to those broadcast at
the PGA Tour Championship, numerical values as shown on CBS
weekly coverage using SwingVision cameras supplied by
Tech Imaging Services,
and the numerical analysis shown at the ESPN Long Drive contest
in December 2005.
StrikeForce technology
is also used by engineers and researchers to analyze equipment
and athlete performance (not shown).
