Developing a system that uses ultrawide-band inertial measurement units to quantify selected 10-Pin skills in real-time by Wee, Joel Jiewei

“…Ten-pin bowling is a unique abstract sport that requires bowlers to deliver a 11-to-16-pound ball in a five-step approach for the ball to travel down the oiled lane to knock down 10 pins. This can be achieved through consistency in timing of the approach, accuracy of movement and reliance on equipment such as a bowling ball. …”
