Ball Action Spotting

We developed an AI-powered ball action spotting system that detects and classifies 12 types of ball-related actions from broadcast football videos, pinpointing the exact timestamps of each event. Our model processes dense, untrimmed match footage to retrieve moments with specific semantic meaning — enabling faster highlight generation, real-time analytics, and advanced coaching insights without manual tagging.
