SPAITR: Sports Replay Application

When a lacrosse team is practicing out on the sports field or when they are in a real game, their coaches strongly value being able to hold players accountable for their roles and tasks on the field. For our project, we developed a method of helping coaches keep those players accountable. This will help to improve player development as well as lacrosse coaching and this solution can be applied to other sports like hockey as well. Some of our goals were to calculate the distance of pylons so they could be shown, display the distance data on an application and use a distance formula to calculate the distance between two points. To explain how our solution looks, our solution uses sensors and pylons to keep track of their position and collect distance data. This data is then transported, parsed and passed through a buffer to then be displayed in a boilerplate application to view. The data displayed are the distances between pylons as well as player coordinates on the field in the form of text and a triangle diagram. We currently have a working data parser and buffer that can display data on an application. We have completed goals for our MOV including the finished development of the buffer and parser for two points and a player with data displaying as well as the hardware saving collected distance data for the pylons. The data displayed can help coaches make more informed decisions regarding how to coach their players and improve their players performance.
