Actual Robot Sportscaster Could Replace Robotlike Human Sportscasters
Sportscaster real robot could replace human Robotlike sports commentators
Artificial intelligence comes to new sports
If you have been convinced for years that John Madden was replaced with an iPod full of soccer generic comments, which may be pleased to know that the Swiss Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne has worked on an even more advanced. It is equipped with artificial intelligence, so that you can actually see what is happening on the ground and provide feedback.
The school, which from now on called EPFL, came with a complex algorithm that uses several different video sources, continuous monitoring to follow a football, basketball or football game the same way one commentator human could. It divides the field into a grid, and track individual players based on uniform color, number, and other clues, predicting the probability of entry of each player in each section of the network.
The next step is to feed all this data in a program that is able to synthesize the data and create comment. Currently, the system is intended to be used by coaches to analyze teamwork from a broad point of view, but I personally love to see a commentator on robotics. Maybe you can become friends with the robotic future journalists?
