Project Overview
Right now, judges score gymnasts using pen and paper, and often have to employ assistants to enter scores for them. We would like to improve this process and to have a more efficient and better way of scoring gymnastics moves. We would build a machine using Raspberry Pi to record deductions with buttons with time-stamps, as well as employing a camera that would record the gymnasts' routines. Gymnasts now are unable to view these feedback from judges and only receive the final score. Therefore, we would collect the information about the gymnasts' routines' score distribution, which includes the moves' difficulty points, deductions and time-stamps, and upload them to Youtube along with the video of their routines for the gymnasts understand what they need to work on and improve.
Objectives
- Design the circuitry and Raspberry Pi to input scores with buttons and record the gymnasts' routines using a camera.
- Design and build a unit to house the computer and circuits.
- Upload the information to Youtube for the gymnasts to see the scoring process and view their mistakes.
- Let the audience use the machine for score deduction with a video of a gymnastics routine during our demo.
Challenges
- Learn how to use Raspberry Pi.
- Learn how to code with Python.
- Learn how circuits work and how to create them (for visual inputs, and display/internet outputs).
- Learn how to implement buttons to the Raspberry Pi.
- Learn how to connect the camera to the Raspberry Pi and take videos with it.
- Learn how to upload the information collected from the Raspberry Pi to Youtube.
- Figure out how to 3D print the housing for the unit.
