sprinting boxesIt all came down to the pixels
I used the original, super simple, super easy 360° configuration for a winter, spring, and summer seasons. As with most projects, however, you often discover which requirements you care about the most after starting. I had gotten to a reasonable workflow for correctness (I could take a video, find all the people, and then detect when the points started and infer the score based on which side pulled the disc,) I had a few directions to go next: make it fast, or make it pretty.
Visual quality had the most room for improvement, so let’s go there. I can’t compete with professional photographers with high-end cameras and really big lenses, but I can try, right?
