| Signal | Details |
|---|---|
| Timeline | Dec 2025 to Feb 2026 |
| Organization | Enhanced Robotics / Tenniix |
| Focus | Ball Radius Estimation & Distance Regression System |
| Stack | YOLOv8 |
Approach
- Used cropped detections from the temporal
ball3f_modelpipeline. - Customized a YOLOv8 backbone for frame-level ball radius prediction.
- Used Distribution Focal Loss bin regression for robust radius estimation.
Downstream Use
Predicted radius supports ball distance approximation, trajectory analysis, and spatial understanding for tennis analytics.
