Is that an auto-generated comment? I can't make sense of it at all.

  Assume the marketing for the system is true (https://www.pixellot.tv/ https://www.pixellot.tv/) It's a modular technology. Just a camera and 4/5G card. It's all then just cloud software. They already have 10,000 installations. And I don't seem why any school would not have one. Sport is worth billions. The money is there to keep this rolling. 90,000 current hours per month are produced. This is a TV station run by software.

    I think it's a neat approach for low-budget sports broadcasting but not very novel. Computer vision master students have been implementing ball tracking algorithms in first year courses since years. You usually combine some kind of feature detector (in this case probably a convolutional neural network, thus the "AI" naming) with some kind of state tracker like a Kalman filter. Getting the kinks out of the system is the hard part of course, which also pixellot seem not to have solved completely yet.

This is a funny example but they have millions of hours behind them. > Computer vision master students have been implementing ball tracking algorithms in first year courses since years. Well, I'm sure they do in a lab perhaps. Ball tracking algorithms and software will be 50 years old. Pixellot has commercialised it and employed 150 people on this real world problem. This is the hard bit (the 1% of the 95%, 5%, 1%) Not the Facebook someone programmed over the weekend.
