Dan Harriman's Cue Sports Prep Academy

Further exposure is in order?
Think the suggestion was more in line with a shop owner convincing the vagrants outside his business that they may collect more donations in front of a rival's shop down the street rather than in front of his own. Kick the can down the road and let this nonsense become someone else' issue.

I view it more like " See those guys standing over there? Yeah,the big ones. Go tell them what you just told me. "
 
I tried uploading in HD format and it was taking a lot longer than expected. I thought it would process faster with comments disabled, but it didnt. YT likely had service disruption and did not announce the outage.

The comment was welcomed.

I suspect YT engineer is throttling my account. If my suspicion is confirmed I will reach out for executive action.
I can't believe this guy is still spreading this garbage, people have asked to join/subscribe to his Acadamy, and he just moves on in another area.
I have asked for a address of this Acadamy and have been pretty much ignored. He talks in circles when asked about different things. He's been doing this for months now to no avail, how long is AZB going to let this game he's playing go on. He should be considered for a banning.
 
He's the AZB pet scam artist troll wannabe. They like to keep him around to maintain the appropriate ambiance. He provides a balance to the toxic bitterness of this fine establishment.
 
justin dumb has run out of copy and paste internet word salad
and with the sudden and quick disappearance of mr harrymon, i fear the thread will just continue to spurt
 
Haven't seen the Academy's marquee "player/teacher/author/protector of the downtrodden" in a few weeks. Must be field testing the cue sleeve or something.

Directing him to poolisnotdead worked... he trolling a new audience now. And here we are...missing him...almost as much as I miss thenaturalplayer, who was imo an expert level troll and one of my favorites of all time on any forum.

I was commenting on the Academy's namesake, not Justy...but yes, he will not be tolerated anywhere outside this place.

Either that or wait for people to step out of line against him and ban them instead...
 
Developing a Pool Table Scanner based on openCV.
First calibration test to measure precision and accuracy is ready.
Expected level of precision should be at least within one square unit.

If you think you're badass, and you try to stand your ground
It will look into your eyes and make its awful sound
Then it will suddenly fly at you
And hit you in your head or chest
And your body will disintegrateBecause the blood-red head's the best.
Razor sharp fangs in a gross mouth, yellow burning eyes, surprise
Gordy cauliflower ears, and talons growing out of its face
8 feet off the ground, and moving fast, and looking down
The people scatter as the foul death spreads.

Hough Circle Transformations works. It detects circles, but it does not detect all circles. It also has a tendency to detect the wrong size of the circle based on light reflections.

Testing pictures of the pool table with scattered pool balls were fed to the program. Five 1080p still images were captured each had 10 balls on the table, the detections were not good 1, 1, 3, 2, and 1. The prebuilt library is not accurate enough.

Hough Line Transformations works. It is more accurate when detecting the difference between the ball and the cloth. In some cases it detects the line of the shadow under the cushion. It struggles to detect the circular shape on darker shaded balls. On brightly shaded balls the circle imprint has potential for further processing. Examples of brightly shaded are the yellow 1, orange 5 and white striped 9 ball. The red 3 had a cast shadow and the detection was incomplete.

OpenCV is a good start, but you have to know how to optimize the code. If anyone is interested it is demanding in terms of Quality Testing and development moves at a snail pace.

Developing alternative solutions to improve the existing code base is ongoing. Strong geometers with programming skills are wanted.

Short version.
You failed.
Because you don't know what you're doing.
You trying to hire coders with no money is hilarious.

Remember everybody, he pays with Photoshop cash:

Expected level of precision should be at least within one square unit?

You're telling me your expected level of accuracy is going to place a ball within what appears to be one square foot?


I seriously don't even know why I looked...

Due to the vanishing point of a camera lens, objects further from the camera have less measureable precision than objects closer to the camera. The sampling rate or the size of the unit square will impact processing speed. Take a picture of a pool table from along the long rail at an angle. Move the ball along the rail closer to the camera, then move the ball along the rail furthest from the camera. The two rails should be parallel and in terms of pixels of a photo dimension, the closer rail is "longer" than the opposing "shorter" rail, in terms of pixel distance in the photo.


Two products will be developed one for table scanning a live event and another for recorded video files.

The live table scanner is to provide a calibration test for pool tables and equipment, they way they should be within tolerable limits. Think checking if rails bounce right or if pockets are angled properly, there is a "gap" in the rack and other pro level complaint issues.

The recorded table scanner is to provide data collection by shot of past matches for statistical analysis.
