Pan-Tilt-Zoom Sports Videography

We are developing an autonomous videography system based on a collection of pan-tilt-zoom cameras! The goal of project is to detect and track a group of moving actors/athletes and to control the cameras to autonomously film them from multiple perspectives in a sports setting.

Our hope is to eventually deploy versions of this system at Mines sporting events. Because of that we try to involve student groups and undergraduates extensively in development.
