Abstract

An efficient weightlifting barbell tracking algorithm has been proposed in this paper. We aim to fast and accurately extract barbell route from weightlifting competition video sequence for training. To achieve this target, a vertical enhancement diamond search pattern is adopted to find out the most similarity areas. From the experimental result, our proposed algorithm is able to keep tracking exactness of barbell object and respond in real time. It helps athletics, coaches and biomechanics scholars to gather the weightlifting performance as rapidly as required by the user.
