Quick answer

Is Computer Vision: Find Players and the Ball in Video a good fit for high school students in Grades 9-12?

Computer Vision: Find Players and the Ball in Video is a good fit for students in grades 9-12 who are interested in finding players in match video and telling teams apart by jersey color. CIT offers online or in-person lessons in Apgujeong, Gangnam, Seoul, in one-to-one or small-group formats. Students make a detection scorecard with error frames, a 2D tactical minimap with player paths, and a Streamlit app for video upload and CSV download.

Working from a short football clip cleared for use, students read the video frame by frame and check a pretrained model's player, referee, and ball detections against a table they verified by hand, counting misses and false detections. They separate the two teams by jersey color, keep each player's ID across frames, and use pitch landmarks to convert screen positions into 2D pitch coordinates for a tactical minimap. The course ends with a Streamlit app that turns an uploaded clip into a processed video, minimap, and CSV, plus a performance report with error cases. The student sets their own question, then designs and tests a feature, model, interface, or solution of their own. In an application or interview, the student separates the material they drew on from their own decisions, results, failed attempts, revisions, and limits.

From open research to student-owned work

Students inspect a relevant public source, reproduce the idea, then add an original question, feature, or test. Every source is public, and each lesson names the exact page it opens.

How can I explain this course to my child?

If questions about finding players in match video or telling teams apart by jersey color keep making you ask why, Computer Vision: Find Players and the Ball in Video lets you investigate the question with evidence, then build and defend an extension of your own.

Which interests suggest this course?

  • finding players in match video
  • telling teams apart by jersey color
  • mapping video onto a 2D pitch

What does the student finish?A detection scorecard with error frames, a 2D tactical minimap with player paths, and a Streamlit app for video upload and CSV download.

Is this a good fit?

A strong fit for students who want to understand, build, test, or responsibly use AI systems.

Course placement follows current subject and coding readiness.

Students should be ready to document sources, methods, and limits.

Advanced tools are introduced after a clear baseline.

What will my child learn?

  1. Read a video's frame rate, frame count, and resolution, and save processed frames as a new MP4.
  2. Count correct, missed, and false detections of players, referees, and the ball against a hand-checked table.
  3. Separate teams by jersey color and find where player IDs switch or break when players overlap.
  4. Compute the transform between screen and pitch from matching points and check the position error at players' feet.

How does the course progress?

  1. 1
    Video and Detection Results

    Read a permitted short clip frame by frame and score player, referee, and ball detections by hand.

  2. 2
    Team Separation and Player Tracking

    Label home and away players by jersey color features and count ID switches and broken tracks where players overlap or cross.

  3. 3
    Pitch Coordinates and Minimap

    Use field lines and intersections to convert screen positions into a 2D minimap with player paths.

  4. 4
    Web App, Evaluation, and Public Results

    Combine upload, processed video, minimap, and CSV in one web app, and report performance and limits in a README.

Students documenting and explaining hands-on work at CIT

What counts as useful evidence?

A detection scorecard with error frames, a 2D tactical minimap with player paths, and a Streamlit app for video upload and CSV download.

What should an admissions reader be able to see?

The student sets their own question, then designs and tests a feature, model, interface, or solution of their own. In an application or interview, the student separates the material they drew on from their own decisions, results, failed attempts, revisions, and limits.

Useful evidence may include a documented dataset, baseline comparison, model evaluation, error analysis, and a clear record of the student's own decisions.

The evidence an application reads is what the student understood, completed, and can explain.

Systems Lens

The real research project this course reads

The student separates the pipeline that turns football video into a top-down view, then changes one value to see what breaks. In class the project is separated into five boxes (input, memory, process, output, control). The lesson opens one of them, changes one value, and leaves the rest closed.

  • InputWhat comes in?

    One frame of match video and the mode to run

  • Memoryopened hereWhat persists?

    The pitch dimensions in coordinates, the fitted colour basis that separates teams, and a short trail of recent ball positions

  • ProcessWhat transforms?

    Detecting players and ball, splitting them into teams, and mapping screen coordinates onto pitch coordinates

  • OutputWhat leaves, and who uses it?

    A pitch diagram with player positions, and the annotated video

  • ControlWhat decides when anything runs?

    The runner that picks the mode and feeds frames one at a time

The 6 files this lesson opens, named and grouped by box

The files the lesson opens, by name. The course is not a walk through the repository; it opens a chosen few and says which.

The figure showing the pitch length moving, and what gets watched

One value moves and everything else stays. The right-hand column is the prediction written before the run, not a result; the work is reconciling the two.

I appreciated that a simple early idea was extended into an 'AI debate tool'. My child has always been interested in debate and social issues, so seeing that interest connect to the project makes me expect a more complete and distinctive result.
