FLYBALL AI AUTO-TRACKING
Our new, proprietary computer vision engine is built to give you millisecond-accurate timing for line-to-line and passes, so you can focus on the heat of the competition instead of manual frame-by-frame scrubbing.
Why we built it
Getting reliable times from video has always meant pausing, scrubbing, and noting times by hand. We wanted to change that. We have developed a tracking engine on real flyball footage so your device can detect dogs, identify passes, and compute times automatically—with accuracy, targeting within ~0.01ms.
What the engine does
The new tracking engine runs entirely on your device. It locates each dog crossing through the gate, flags pass events, and outputs:
- Line-to-line times — Consistent, repeatable measurements so you can easily compare runs.
- Pass timing — When and where passes happen, so you can tune spacing and handoffs.
- Two modes — RACE for near-instant visual feedback on passes during a competition, and TIME for the full suite of measurements when you need the numbers.
Millisecond-accurate timing
We're aiming for timing accuracy within ~0.01ms. That comes from frame-level detection, stable calibration to your camera's frame rate, and processing that keeps everything in sync. For best results we recommend 60 fps footage; which our in app recorder sets as it's default.
Whether you're at training or at a competition, you can capture a race, open the analysis, and get measurements without manually marking frames. Our goal is to make that the default way you use MotionXY for flyball.
Statistics
Timing is only half the battle. To truly optimize a team's performance, you need to see the bigger picture. FLYBALL AI AUTO-TRACKING automatically feeds data into our new Team Statistics Dashboard, allowing you to analyze patterns over time.
- Consistency Tracking — Identify which dogs are hitting their line-to-line times most reliably across multiple races.
- Lineup Optimization — Use historical pass data to determine the safest and fastest order for your dogs.
By aggregating every frame analyzed, MotionXY builds a digital footprint of your team's capability, moving coaching decisions from "gut feeling" to data-driven precision.
