Taking a Look at Hawk Eye

In The Looking Glass Wars by Frank Beddor the story of Alice in Wonderland is told from the opposite viewpoint. In this story Alyss Heart is the princess of Wonderland, and not a little girl from London. Alyss is forced to leave her homeland when both of her parents are killed by her evil Aunt Redd. When Alyss finds herself alone in England and must find her way back to Wonderland to defeat her evil Aunt. By switching storylines, Beddor shows significant themes that are developed throughout the story. For example, the theme violence or vengeance is show at times such as Redd and Genevieve, Dodge , and when Alyss faces her evil Aunt Redd.

In Chris Kluwe’s Ted talk “How AR Will Change Sports... and Build Empathy” Kluwe talks about how augmented reality can change the world. He tells the audience how it can give a better experience to fans. This would be a good way to give the audience the perspective of the player. It would be like a GoPro but it would stream the feed right to the fan and the fan would get a very personal view as to what was going on. Not only that but it could enhance the fan’s experience in another way. If they are not going to view the game from the player’s point of view the game will be enhanced. On the plastic visor on the helmet plays will show up. Players will not have missed assignments and also coaches will not be punished because the players won’t mess up. The quarterback can get alerts from the visor about blitzes coming from backs and

Though there have been so many factors to determine the success of a game especially in sports, there are only few that provide real life experience. With the growing gaming market and the increased number of gamers who are aware of the world market in games and sports, the requirements to keep up a competitive game system is essential to the business of gaming (Ruggill & McAllister, 2011).

Hand-eye coordination is vital to every sport out there. A basketball player has to shoot the ball into the hoop, a football player has to throw the ball to an open receiver, a baseball player has to swing a bat to hit a 95 mile per hour fastball, and golfers have to swing their club and hit a tiny ball a couple hundred yards. It is the number one aspect that is required in all sports. Although it is common to associate sports with many other qualities.

Ball velocity was calculated for 6 serves, 3 jump serves and 3 standing overhand serves. Ball velocity was calculated based on distance and flight time. Both of these variables were discovered through Dartfish Analysis Software. Table 3 displays the summarized

The study of sports analytics is a common strategy and performance tool for players and fans. Many professional athletes will study analytics to help improve their game. Not only do professional athletes use this to their advantage but fans and workers in the sports world can use it to study the game and make wise predictions. Sports analytics also provides an in-depth evaluation of how numbers can track a particular sport and helps us follow along to a closer degree. Sports analytics provides a strategy for studying player’s habits and the selected sport as well as digging deep into the root of the game and understanding it from an analytic point of view.

Our group has always enjoyed baseball, we decided to make our video on the biomechanics of a baseball swing. We all are fans of the sport, it’s America’s national pastime, and we also know there has been extensive research on this popular movement. The game of baseball was invented in 1839, by Abner Doubleday, in Cooperstown, New York. Ever since that day, the complexity, yet simplicity of the of the hitter’s swing has intrigued the players, fans, and certainly the researchers. As the years passed, we developed technology the further investigate the biomechanics of a baseball swing. Tony Gwynn was one of the first hitters to ever carry a camcorder with him everywhere, falling in love with studying his swing. With the emphasis being put on

This new technology will benefit us in many ways. The Coyote program helped Marks and his team of meteorologists track the Hurricane Edward. "While Coyote explored the inside of the hurricane, a Global Hawk drone flew 20,000 to 30,000 feet over its head." (P. 7) The drones helps make it easier to explore the hurricane, but it also makes it safer for those who explore the hurricanes. "According to Marks, it is part of a new generation of instruments that are controlled by a pilot from a laptop and board of the plane." Marks agrees that this new technology will help improve the accuracy of storm tracking and make it safer for the meteorologists.This new technology will benefit us in many ways.

Light is generated by a flash and is projected through a set of filters and onto a concave mirror, this concave mirror reflects the light up into a series of lenses that focus the light. The uppermost lens shapes the light into a doughnut (Fundus Photography Overview, n.d.). The newly shaped light is then reflected onto another concave mirror and then exits the camera through the lens and then goes through the cornea. The resulting image exits through the cornea and then goes back to the single lens camera system (Fundus Photography Overview, n.d.).

METHOD: An air hockey table was set up and a video camera on a tripod was placed over the air hockey table. The camera was positioned so it was directly above the air hockey table facing downwards. The air hockey table was turned on and two near identical pucks were placed on the table, one at one end of the table and one in the centre. The puck at the end of the table was launched by
