What Gets Assessed
5 technique elements are automatically detected using pose landmarks — no teacher input needed
Feet Width
Ankles must be at least shoulder-width apart — the foundation of a stable setting platform.
Ankle vs Hip WidthElbows Up
Both elbows must rise above shoulder height — getting arms into the setter’s window above the forehead.
Elbow Y vs Shoulder YHands High
Both wrists must reach above the nose/forehead at the point of contact — correct contact height.
Wrist Y vs Nose YElbow Bend
Elbow angle must fall between 55° and 130° — the setter’s triangle shape, not straight arms.
Joint Angle 55–130°Arms Symmetric
Both elbows must be at a similar height — balanced arms for a clean, controlled set direction.
Left vs Right ElbowSetup Guide
Get up and running in under 3 minutes
Position Your Device
Place a laptop or tablet on a table or chair at roughly player hip-to-chest height. The camera should have a clear view of the player from head to toe. A side-on or slight angle works best — avoid directly behind or in front of the ball path.
💡 Landscape orientation onlyWait for Pose Engine
After opening the tool and allowing camera access, wait for the ● POSE ONLINE indicator to appear in the top header. This confirms MediaPipe has loaded and is actively detecting body landmarks. The READY button will unlock automatically.
💡 First load takes ~10–15 secondsPlayer Gets in Frame
The player stands on the foot guide shown on screen, facing the camera. Their full body — feet to hands raised overhead — should be visible. The foot guide disappears once the assessment starts.
💡 Player should be 6–8 feet from cameraPress READY & Toss on Cue
Player (or teacher) presses the READY button. A 3-2-1 countdown begins with audio beeps. On TOSS! the partner tosses the ball and the player sets. The tool records 4.5 seconds from that moment.
💡 Partner should toss from the side, not between camera and playerReview the Instant Replay
After recording, the video plays back automatically at 50% speed. The checklist on the right shows each skill as green ✓ or red ✗. Each check requires 4 consecutive frames of good form — so a flash or fluke won’t earn a tick.
💡 Press TRY AGAIN to immediately attempt another repScoring & Ratings
Score out of 5 — each check worth 1 point
💡 Teacher Tips
- 🔄 Run in a station rotation — one device serves 4–6 students at a time while others drill separately
- 📺 Connect to a TV or monitor so the whole group can watch the replay together and self-coach
- 🎯 Challenge students to improve their score across 3 attempts — use the score as a pre/post skill benchmark
- 👥 Pair stronger and developing setters together — the partner toss role still builds anticipation and teamwork
- ☀️ Avoid direct sunlight behind the player — it confuses the pose engine. Consistent background works best
- 🔋 Keep the device plugged in — MediaPipe is CPU intensive and drains battery quickly
