Electronic Scoring

Electronic Scoring or Automatic Scoring is a novel method to evaluate shooting for sports and entertainment applications. While a range of different methods are used, automatic scoring based on image processing has proved to be an efficient, accurate and affordable technic. In image processing based scoring a bullseye printed on cheap cardboard plates is used. The target is viewed by a high resolution camera. As the bullet shots the target, the collision coordinates are automatically processed and calculated and sent to a workstation using wireless transmission. The image processing algorithms are very robust and unaffected by lighting conditions and/ or tilting or rotation of the target. The workstation is equipped with a user friendly software which receives collision data from a multitude of image processing modules. So a single workstation can score and compare different shooters simultaneously.v

An Automatic Scoring System comes with the following parts:

Camera and processing module, this module is packed in a ruggedized casing suitable for outdoor conditions. It is sealed and resistant to direct sunshine or humidity.

Wireless module, this module transmits the collision coordinates to the display module and the workstation. This eliminates the need for using long cabling, and the Camera and processing module just needs AC power line to operate

Display Module, this module includes a 5” color display module and a minimal processing module to display the collision results graphically.

Workstation, this is an industrial computer equipped with Windows operating system and a sophisticated user friendly software to monitor a multitude of camera and processing modules. Each workstation can connect to 32 modules and show, compare and record their corresponding data.
