@rangerrojam @RichardStaff He's not Giancarlo Stanton, that's how

Giancarlo Stanton running home

@playcode_io down right now, any timeline when it’ll be back up? Can’t load any existing projects and login appears to be broken as well

Always forward.

@AshtonJEaton @Nike Awesome, thanks for sharing!

I do know the underlying tech. aws.amazon.com/blogs/machine-… And it’s likely similar to Hawkeye. Basically all these tools use models to identify a person within an image (bounding box) and then within that box, the keypoints on the person. However each company does use some proprietary models that have varying levels of accuracy or specific things they are specialized for; turning 2D to 3D, correlating the key points across each frame of video to get metrics, etc.

Here are the graphics we made at Intel. I work at @Nike innovation now so don’t work on them anymore so not sure all the details for this version but basically we used cameras and computer vision to track each athlete in each lane. Because the cameras were calibrated to specific locations and each frame of video timestamped, we could get distance and time data which you can use to get speed, naturally. Feed the data to a 3D rendered stadium and overlay graphics, and voila. We chose to show speed at the end of each “phase” of the race which I based the location on the data we got from testing and common knowledge of the 100m. So stopping at 30m (drive) and 60 (maintenance) and the end was intentional. Looks like a white label indicates a leader at the end of the phase. The green thing at the front of their label looks to indicate if their are accelerating. This is a bit of a deception because you’re always either accelerating or decelerating. So what it’s actually an indication of is if you’re within a certain percentage of your top speed. The green at the end is graded based on that which is why it’s a gradient. Basically shows that Noah not only has the highest tops speed but holds it best. The final view is everyone’s top speed and where they hit it in the race. It’s freaking wild that Tobago hit his top speed so late.

@janecoaston Gotta lock Trent back in the Sharon Tate house so we can get another album like this

I know I’ve said it a billion times but man this album is so good open.spotify.com/track/1f0yDwWS…

@kmele Men’s memories are uncertain and the past that was differs little from the past that was not.

Every human is INDIGENOUS to Earth—the end.
