Abstract
A computing system engages in digital image processing of received video frames to generate sport data that indicates a score and/or a time associated with a sport event. The digital image processing includes: (i) identifying a first frame region of the video frames based on the first frame region depicting a scoreboard; (ii) executing a first procedure that analyzes the identified first frame region to detect, within the identified first frame region, second frame region(s) based on the second frame region(s) depicting text of the scoreboard; (iii) in response to detecting the second frame region(s), executing a second procedure to recognize the text in at least one of the second frame region(s); and (iv) based at least on the recognizing of the text, generating the sport data. In response to completing the digital image processing, the computing system then carries out an action based on the generated sport data.
