To Chuck...Or Not to Chuck?
A device that tells you when a bowler is chucking.
One step closer to the truth. No labs. No bans. Productive. Incoherence-- ambiguity, takes the back door. Clear as spring water.
Quote:
A group of young Pakistani engineers claims to have developed a wearable technology that can measure the elbow flex in an action in real time, and so could potentially be used in match play. CricFlex , as the product is known, consists of small motion sensors (of the sort used in phones for orienting maps) attached to a sleeve that a bowler can wear. The device sends its readings to an app, either on a mobile phone or a computer, immediately after the bowler has delivered.

This is revolutionary right here. I hope that this device gets perfected after trials runs...and is slowly introduced into the game.

I hope those "Pakistani Engineers" don't turn out to be like "Water Car Engineer"

These people are the masters of bluffing

A little bit into the article:
Quote:
The team has published a research paper on the technology used, which was accepted at an MIT conference in 2015. They have also patented the technology in the US. But the device is still a prototype, and requires further testing .
|
The further testing is the part that I hope they take their time with...no need rushing this.
Well, they did presented research at MIT. Got something serious going on.
Hope for the best ![applause](images/smilies/applause.gif) ![applause](images/smilies/applause.gif)

Good for cricket if it really happens, the source is not credible enough though, I did not find any neutral source confirming their presentation or acceptance of paper by Harvard. Cricket websites are not trustworthy source of scientific claims.

I have my doubts over Pakistani education systems, they have published numerous fake papers and news about pseudo scientific discoveries in the past.
The father of their nuclear weapons Abdul Qadeer Khan supported the claims of a fraud and his idea of a so called water fuelled car, which btw defies the basic laws of physics
yes I do prefer to be a skeptic about Anything comes out of Pakistan related to science.

Sensitivity, specificity?
Needs to be better than ICC current slipshod standards.
Taskin reported, which is fine arm bends a lot, even now...but what kinda lab were they using? Zero evidence of straightening past the shoulder height on slow motion of his old action...
Brian Vitori gets banned...fixes his action in just 2 months...very 1st game back he is reported again and banned again. ICC labs have horrible precision. Guy takes test 3 times and his results are fail, pass, fail. LOL.
Kusal Perera banned for illegal substance. SLC commissions independent biochemists who confirm the substance COULD in fact be produced in the specified concentration under normal physiologic activity. What kind of clown chemists does the ICC have on their payroll?
Or do they just pick on countries like BD, Zim, SL...?

Link to the official website of the conference where the inventors presented Cricflex( scroll down to Sports and Performance):

Some very cool innovations

Is there a picture of what it looks like? I don't know if any bowlers would be comfortable with the idea of wearing such a device while bowling in a game
Edit: nvm its in the OP, doesn't seem like it would hamper the bowler.

The trials should be worked out in different countries.
The aim for this,if it goes through will not need ICC's approval. Coaches can use this in grassroots cricket, find out the problem early, and then work on the action.
That's not bad, innit?
