The SmartPitch patented video analysis technology measures both
True Release Speed the moment of release, and
Pitcher Extension, the distance from the Rubber to that point
Here is a frame-by-frame video illustrating the elements SmartPitch's proprietary technology uses to do this. Our patent covers the sophisticated algorithms SmartPitch uses to extract precise distances from live video taken by ordinary phones.
For the techhies out there, see the graph below showing a small sample of the internal data SmartPitch uses to pull off this magic! The orange dots are points of pitcher movement near the release point.
For a Portrait version of this video which displays better on a phone, use this link.
Even more reasons SmartPitch is #betterthanradar and is "The Affordable Future of Speed Measurement".
