    Abstract: Methods and systems for virtual coaching and performance training using a mobile device are disclosed. The methods and systems perform the steps of capturing a training video of one or more players, using the camera on the mobile computing device; superimposing a visual cue onto the training video at a first location and for a cue period starting from a first time instant; determining whether at least one of the one or more players has responded to the visual cue at a second time instant within the cue period, by analyzing a body posture flow of each player between the first time instant and the second time instant, wherein each body posture flow is extracted from the training video by performing a computer vision algorithm on one or more frames of the training video; and in response to determining that at least one player has responded to the visual cue, generating a feedback to the one or more players.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for ball shot attempt detection and game analytics generation are disclosed. The methods and systems perform steps to receive an input video of a ball gameplay, wherein the input video was captured using a stationary camera, and wherein frames of the input video comprises a goal; identify a Region of Interest (ROI) surrounding the goal by performing a first computer vision algorithm on the input video; detect a ball within the ROI during a shot attempt and determining a trajectory of the ball by performing a second computer vision algorithm on the input video; and identify a player relevant to the shot attempt based on the trajectory of the ball. In some embodiments, the computer vision algorithms comprise a convolution neural network (CNN). The present invention uses computer vision techniques to enable a resource-limited mobile device such as a smartphone to efficiently execute the new process.
