Urban planners, architects and filmmakers could all benefit from new technology developed by a research team led by Waterloo Engineering.

The automated system can generate 3D computer models of buildings or entire cities using only 2D aerial photographs, a much cheaper, faster way than relying on specially trained 3D artists and computer graphics programs.

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology developed at Waterloo Engineering gives baseball scouts a powerful new tool to accurately analyze pitcher performance and biomechanics using low-resolution video.

The system, known as PitcherNet, is the product of a three-year partnership between researchers at the Vision and Image Processing (VIP) Lab and the Baltimore Orioles of Major League Baseball (MLB).
