    Abstract: A multi-camera architecture for detecting and tracking a ball in real-time. The multi-camera architecture includes network interface circuitry to receive a plurality of real-time videos taken from a plurality of high-resolution cameras. Each of the high-resolution cameras simultaneously captures a sports event, wherein each of the plurality of high-resolution cameras includes a viewpoint that covers an entire playing field where the sports event is played. The multi-camera architecture further includes one or more processors coupled to the network interface circuitry and one or more memory devices coupled to the one or more processors. The one or more memory devices includes instructions to determine the location of the ball for each frame of the plurality of real-time videos, which when executed by the one or more processors, cause the multi-camera architecture to simultaneously perform one of a detection scheme or a tracking scheme on a frame from each of the plurality of real-time videos to detect the ball used in the sports event and perform a multi-camera build to determine a location of the ball in 3D for the frame from each of the plurality of real-time videos using one of detection or tracking results for each of the cameras.

    Abstract: A video capture and processing system includes a memory configured to store a pose database. The pose database includes poses that indicate a start or stoppage in an event. The system also includes a processor operatively coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to generate a pose of an individual in a video frame of captured video of the event. The pose can be three-dimensional pose or a two-dimensional pose. The processor is also configured to determine, based on the pose database, whether the pose of the individual indicates a start or a stoppage in the event. The processor is further configured to control an upload of video of the event based on the determination of whether the pose indicates the start or the stoppage in the event.
