The U-15 baseball graduation cup kicked off on Dragon Festival at the Taipei Tianmu Baseball Stadium. This year, refereeing is aided by a brand new technology from the Industrial Technology Research Institute, or ITRI. It’s an AI-powered ball-tracking system called “The Eagle Eye of Taiwan.” Equipped with a high-definition camera and a margin of error less than 1cm, it’s almost as powerful as the Major League Baseball’s version. Let’s find out more.

Lee Shih-chi
ITRI Central Region Campus director
This system is mainly an AI-assisted image recognition system, and uses a technique in biotechnology called label-free detection, which can analyze every good and bad strike as well as the speed of batting.

Richard Hsieh
Just Best Taiwan CEO
In our discussions with ITRI, we expressed our wish to adopt these systems fully on baseball fields. We also hope that the system can become very easy to use, so that the set of technologies can be used in riverside baseball fields.

Chen Qi-heng
Baseball coach
Most importantly, it has a clear mechanism that allows our players, and even referees and coaches to review performance of every game and training session. There will be precise numbers and clear graphics that allow players to make progress more quickly.

More than an aid for refereeing, the Eagle Eye precisely captures the baseball’s trajectory, average speed, rotational speed and exit velocity. An AI system also automatically creates a playback video for referees and coaches to refer to, for review and training purposes. The system also gives suggestions for players to improve their batting, making for greater improvements in training sessions.
