A small research - tennis coaching vs algorithm lecturing

August 7, 2016

  Julia likes to pick up a small topic to do some research and practice her research muscle. Since she was amazed about USATP master professional Rick Macci's teaching video, and amazed how good the presentation is. A lot of technologies are applied on tennis coaching and tennis matches. For example, on the tennis court, on the grand slam matches, there are hundreds of camera on the court, hundreds of technologies on speed measuring, and all other things.

  Here is the link:

1. Lecture on Roger Federer's tennis forehand stroke, and show 3D technologies how to do analysis
2. Before vs After, two videos are comparing.
3. Statistics: How many views? over half a million views. -
4. Producer: USPTA
    - how good USPTA can utilize the technologies and help the teaching.

Lecture notes: 
Forehand - 7 steps: (P, J, E, T, F, FS, F)
Preparation
Joint angles
Elbow Extension
Tap the dog
The Flip
Forward Swing
The Finish

Goal: Racket Speed, keep the ball in the court


And teaching lectures she spent time to work on this weekend:

Algorithm: count inversion
extended merge sort:

Julia also likes the lecture content about count inversion - merge sort, the examples and discussions.
So, Julia likes to study those lecture notes, take time to enjoy reading.
