Abstract

The branch of Computer Science known as digital image processing includes different topics of Investigation and Development, as well as applications encompassing different stages that go from data acquisition, enhancement, and segmentation, up to the analysis, classification and interpretation of images [1]. Particularly, the reconstruction of 3D movements from 2D images (photos, filming) is a complex area, which becomes significant when it is a matter of obtaining real time responses. [1, 2, 3]. This project aim is developing a three-dimensional analysis system considering the processing of a soccer ball trajectory and rotational speed for its later computer-generated graphical modeling. The objective of the system is to improve the player’s skills and the training methodology, and is framed within the research line of this Institute and within the area of signal and image processing.
