Train Individually. Improve Dramatically.

Sharpshooter aims to help basketball players focus on their goal of improving their shooting percentage by continuously tracking his or her location and passing him or her a ball upon request.

The Design.

Sharpshooter was designed with the customer in mind. The body's frame is mostly made of 8020 aluminum to ensure sufficient strength while maintaining a light weight.

The Launcher.

The ball passing mechanism consists of four wheels spinning at high speeds to launch the ball. Additionally, Sharpshooter uses a linear actuator to adjust the tilt angle of its launch mechanism for passing the basketball at different distances.

Player Tracking.

Two webcams are mounted on Sharpshooter to allow for player tracking using a combination of Haar wavelet transforms for face detection, HoG (Histogram of Oriented Gradients) descriptors for body detection, and stereo vision for precise distance measurements.
