AI functions for live streaming

[Lucky Loser]

I have a true machine learning AI system that benefits live streamers, as well as other pool applications. I am representing the PlayKii company. You can use your own overhead camera as long as it is RTMP, e.g. YouTube or FB video. It is in developmental progress with many cool applications coming. Currently the AI can "see" the balls on the table, measure, and display their trajectories. It also store a number of stats including time, balls made, scratches, etc... You can get an instant replay with only a click of the mouse, with or without ball trajectories. We have just completed an industry level commercial, but here is a short limited function video.

Wow! That looks great. (I'm not a streamer).

I am colorblind. I super wish there were big numbers that popped out on the screen identifying which ball is which number. That seems like something your app would be perfect at.

Agreed, that is something others have suggested as well. We have many suggestions going in the hopper now. Eventually, the AI will learn more and faster than us, and it will develop many relevant and useful applications. Other companies that are advertising AI are really just adapted AR. As such, coding must be developed by coders for each application. With true machine learning, the AI writes it's own code based on data we provide it. thank you.

I like where you're going, but many streamers don't use the direct overhead. First it's hard to install and second it's actually one of the poorer views to watch the game from. Can you implement the tech into any angle?

Hello Bruce,
Thank you for the question. You are correct. So far, and even in this moment many do not. However, you are asking that question just before the inflection point. Light developers are now offering table lighting with built in cameras just recently. Also, they can easily adapt current lighting with these new affordable overhead HD cameras. Yes, we can implement it into different angles. Overhead is best for ball trajectories and the advanced physics functions. Also, for player recognition lateral cameras are useful, but not required. The system can also accept multiple streams simultaneously, so you can have an overhead, and multiple lateral cameras feeding it. Again, it is true machine learning, not some coded adapted AR marketed as AI. No one in the pool industry has enough $ to afford to develop such. In the infamous words of Efren, "I just got lucky."

It's the hopes with Digital Pool and our Bi-Camera setup, we can essentially leverage the overhead shot for the AI routines alongside the stack view in the production from every table of an event or pool room! Stay tuned, there's some stuff happening on the tech front.

Not a Luddite by any stretch but does showing a pool match really require this much tech?? I watch the old AccuStats stuff and imo their old lo-tech version was very good and had way better commentators than today. Doesn't require rocket science level tech to have a good stream. I don't need, or want, a ton of stats/info thrown at me on-screen. I've seen a couple streamers that have tried it and imo its way past annoying.
