Smart boxer system

  • The Smartboxer system is an in-house built software prototype that provides quantitative visual analytics for long durational boxing training sessions. Key aspects include meaningful video segments from training sessions, continuous person detection and tracking, movement-pattern analytics, and unconventional camera vantage points.
  • Current Capabilities and Next Level Enhancements: 1. Automatic video segmentation:. 2. Continuous detection and tracking: . 3. Smart Analytics: The SmartBoxer offers three movement-pattern analytics namely – Hotspot, Zone Management, Engagement and Disengagement. Work on to extend the capabilities of SmartBoxer to provide punch analytics from side-view. develop a video management system and create a SmartBoxer App for plug and use.
  • Datapoints Mapped and Analysis offered: 1. The SmartBoxer captures the movement-pattern by locating the position of each boxers throughout a bout period. It maps these movement-pattern for granular (every 20 secs) and aggregated (complete 3 minute). 2. SmartBoxer provides the coach with insights about boxers’ lateral/orthodox movements, degree of engagement, stance (orthodox/southpaw), effective ring space utilisation. This helps support the coach-boxer relationship in understanding how to best move forward and promote change

Smart insole system(Patent to be filed)

  • Smart Insole is an IoT and cloud based online gait analysis platform that provides quantitative analytics using metrics along with correlated video. key metrics include plantar pressure, COP, weight distribution from cost-effective force sensitive resistor sensors (FSR) and stride, swing, stance variabilities, asymmetries and foot angle from inertial measurement units (IMU). The developed platform can be used extensively in sports and medical domains for assessing player performances or patient recovery and rehab.
  • Analytics: Smart insole application offers real-time and post analytics. Realtime provides instantaneous pressure points as heat maps, COP trajectory, step count, stride length and velocity, foot angle etc. Post analytics incorporates the above said parameters from an offline data with sever uploaded correlated video. Data transfer with higher throughput, analytics with more domain specific metrics, capacitive based pressure sensor arrays are some of the extended functionalities which are being worked on.
  • Current/Planned Use Case: 1. Smart insole is currently used by Royal Challengers Bangalore for player performance and improvements and by MIOT hospital for patient recovery and rehab 2. Employing smart insole in different sports domains like tennis, badminton, boxing, wrestling and in fatigue management like DMS are some of the main planned use cases.
