RETRACTED ARTICLE: Design of optical tracking sensor based on image feature extraction for badminton athlete motion recognition

Optical tracking sensor technology has been widely used in the field of motion. However, there are still some challenges in the recognition of badminton players, and more accurate methods are needed to capture the dynamic characteristics of badminton players. The aim of this study is to design an optical tracking sensor system based on image feature extraction for badminton player motion recognition. In this paper, a high resolution camera is used to collect the image sequence of badminton match. Then through image processing and computer vision technology, the key image features are extracted from the image sequence. Then, machine learning algorithm is used to classify and recognize the extracted features to achieve accurate recognition of badminton players' movements. The experimental results show that the optical tracking sensor system can effectively extract the movement features of badminton players and identify their movements accurately. Compared with the traditional method, the system in this paper has higher precision and real-time performance, and can meet the needs of practical applications.
