US Olympic badminton player tries out AI-assisted training program at CES
A Taiwanese technology company has developed an AI-assisted program aimed at helping badminton players finesse their game on the court.
US Olympic badminton player Howard Shu tried out the program on Tuesday, January 7, for the first time at CES 2025 in Las Vegas.
The ITRI set up a mini court on the CES showroom floor with the cameras in the corner to capture players smashing the shuttles.
A screen nearby presented the speed of the smash, height of where it would have crossed over the net, and where it would land.
Another screen outside showed the body movement of the players as they hit the shuttles.

Yeah, so it's really cool obviously to see it kind of come out of the machine and kind
00:27
of give me some data and output that the human eye otherwise wouldn't be able to catch on.
00:33
There's things like speed that it was able to catch on, although they do need to fine
00:36
tune it because it needs to be in a little bit more of a controlled environment for the
00:40
cameras to really catch an accurate speed.
00:43
But it's really cool because those are things that the naked eye or human eye wouldn't be
00:46
able to give you exactly.
00:59
Things like speed, I might be able to tell you, hey, I'm getting a little bit tired at
01:03
the end of the match or at the end of the third game, but I wouldn't be able to tell
01:06
you exactly how much slower my smash might be getting.
01:09
You know, my opponent might be retrieving it because I'm, you know, maybe dropping off
01:13
in that smash speed.
01:14
But those are little things that if you had data to, you'd be able to kind of refine and
01:18
kind of improve in your game.
01:24
Yes, based on our system, we can provide the whole information.
01:37
Information is not only the report, but also we can replay the image again so you can screen
01:45
your information from the image file and you can understand which one you can need to improve
01:53
by yourself.
01:54
And based on our training, you can improve your skill and you can enhance your performance.
02:00
Actually, based on our technology, we are not only using the movement, but also we can
02:07
expand this technology to other sports.
02:10
For example, just like tennis, table tennis or some football.
02:15
Yes.
02:16
The height is really, I would say, more accurate here because I was hitting right above that
02:19
net level.
02:20
So this actually looks pretty accurate as well as the landing space of my shuttle.
02:25
I'm excited to see where it goes because we've kind of seen in some other sports right now
02:29
how technical they're getting and progressing with technology.
02:32
I like to use golf as an example.
02:34
You see how technical and how meticulous their players are with ball spin, ball speed, height,
02:40
curvature, right?
02:41
And so I think those are types of things that we will start to see assimilate into racket
02:45
sports as well.
02:47
Aiyah!
02:50
That's like a record for speed, right?
02:57
This results in a compact and portable design.
