Hough Transform[2]
PLAN: We are now running our Hough Transform on a small local window containing the ball and not too much else.
Look at all evidence now!
We also implemented a "smart" Hough transform. This used an assumption that the radius always got smaller as it traveled down the lane. This would reduce the number of false positives by restricting the radius size. It did reduce the number of errors, but if an error occured in a single frame (say, a ball of 2 pixels was detected), the system could never recover because the maximum radius was now set at 2 pixels.
