System Architecture
Ballista converts high-frame-rate iPhone footage into structured baseball telemetry through a controlled computer-vision pipeline.
High-frame-rate iPhone video records the swing window.
Computer vision isolates the baseball across post-contact frames.
Trajectory data is converted into launch telemetry.
Session data is stored for comparison, review, and scouting context.

PIPELINE: CAPTURE → DETECT → SOLVE
Technology
Ballista combines high-frame-rate iPhone capture, custom-trained ball detection, and trajectory-solving logic to convert raw swing footage into structured launch data.
System Capability Index
A trained detection model isolates the baseball across post-contact frames, enabling early-flight tracking from standard iPhone video.
Ballista samples the first moments after impact using high-frame-rate iPhone footage, where launch direction and exit velocity are established.
Detected ball positions are converted into motion vectors and launch estimates using OpenCV-style tracking logic and physics-based projection.
Each swing can be stored as a structured event, creating the foundation for progression tracking, comparison, and future scouting context.
Capture Setup
Ballista extracts launch telemetry from a high-frame-rate iPhone mounted on a tripod. No radar hardware. No cage installation. No external sensor stack.
Field Setup Minimal
