Re: Moneyball 2.0: How Missile Tracking Cameras Are Remaking The NBA

Soccer, Basketball, and Football all have one game piece. The cameras really only have to track 23 things at once. With FRC games, the number of objects tend to vary significantly, and depending on the game could be 50 or more. Also, in certain games, not only do the robots need tracking, but so do the human players (think 2005 and 2006 for human loading, 2007 and 2011 for tube positioning, 2009 for super cell accuracy, etc).

Probably the easiest game for this kind of technology would be 2008, where the robot/human interaction was virtually nil, and there were only 4 game pieces.
