CAMshift algorithm based on geometric information for fast billiard ball tracking
Jungkil Park, Jaebyung Park · 2015
A ball tracking method is proposed by obtaining the ball and a cue direction of the user for billiard assistant system. The captured image is processed by using the following steps. Binarization of the image is done to extract a table, the ball and cue by separating channels using HSV model. Morphology is used to reduce a noise before applying a proposed tracking method. The method is used to detect the ball using the geometric prediction on cue direction and position.
