Abstract
Methods and systems for determining a ball shot attempt result, the ball shot attempt captured by a camera on a mobile computing device, are disclosed. The methods and systems perform steps comprising receiving an input video captured using the camera on the mobile computing device, wherein the input video comprises a ball shot attempt at a goal; receiving a declared ball shot attempt, the declared ball shot attempt detected by analyzing a ball trajectory in the input video; detecting an element movement associated with an element of the goal; and determining the ball shot attempt result based on the element movement and the ball trajectory. In some embodiments, the element of the goal is a net, and the declared ball shot attempt is detected by analyzing the ball trajectory in a ball shot attempt Region of Interest (ROI) within frames of the input video.
