Systems and methods for determining athletic attributes are disclosed. Aspects of this disclosure relate to determining athletic attributes of an athlete from image data. One or more determinations may be based alterations of image data between different images, such as alterations in pixels representing objects or portions of objects. Image data may be utilized to determine whether certain thresholds are met. Various threshold levels may be applied to one or more objects represented in the image data. Landmarks/distance calibrations may be utilized from time-stamped image data to allow for precise measuring of performance (including, but not limited to: sprint or agility times, flight time for vertical jump, distance for throws). Data retrieved or derived from the image data may be used in scoring and/or ranking athletes. Such data may be used to provide training advice or regimes to the athletes or other individuals, such as coaches or trainers.

Athletic attribute determinations from image data

A token-verifiable proxy uploader is disclosed. A token request may be transmitted from an end-user communication device for requesting an upload token from a hosted services server that is configured to authorize transmission of a first media file to a hosted proxy server. The upload token may be transmitted to the end-user communication device. Validation of the user of the end-user communication device may be conducted without the end-user device providing any credentials to the media sharing site and in which the end-user device is does not transmit any credentials specific to the media sharing site as part of the validation. The token validation call may be in response to the hosted proxy server receiving the upload token and either: (1) the first media file from the end-user communication device; or (2) a request from the end-user communication device to upload the first media file to the hosted proxy server.
