  • Abstract
    We analyse video sequences of a hand interacting with a ball. The hand motion is segmented using a piecewise polynomial motion model inspired by research in motor control. Next, an adaptive gravitational model of the ball is used to locate hand-ball events. We show that hand-ball events can be automatically classified from velocity and acceleration profiles.
