> A video-based kinematic analysis tool for athletic performance. Analyzes vertical jump videos to estimate key performance metrics using MediaPipe pose tracking and advanced kinematics.

**Supported jump types:**

- **Drop Jump**: Ground contact time, flight time, reactive strength index
- **Counter Movement Jump (CMJ)**: Jump height, flight time, countermovement depth, triple extension biomechanics

## Features

### Core Features

- **Automatic pose tracking** using MediaPipe Pose landmarks
- **Derivative-based velocity** - smooth velocity calculation from position trajectory
- **Trajectory curvature analysis** - acceleration patterns for refined event detection
- **Sub-frame interpolation** - precise timing beyond frame boundaries
- **Intelligent auto-tuning** - automatic parameter optimization based on video characteristics
- **JSON output** for easy integration with other tools
- **Debug video overlays** with visual analysis
- **Batch processing** - CLI and Python API for parallel processing
- **Python library API** - use kinemotion programmatically
- **CSV export** - aggregated results for research

### Drop Jump Analysis

- **Ground contact detection** based on foot velocity and position
- **Automatic drop jump detection** - identifies box → drop → landing → jump phases
- **Metrics**: Ground contact time, flight time, jump height (calculated from flight time)
- **Reactive strength index** calculations

### Counter Movement Jump (CMJ) Analysis

- **Backward search algorithm** - robust phase detection from peak height
- **Flight time method** - force plate standard (h = g×t²/8)
- **Triple extension tracking** - ankle, knee, hip joint angles
- **Skeleton overlay** - biomechanical visualization
- **Metrics**: Jump height, flight time, countermovement depth, eccentric/concentric durations
- **Validated accuracy**: 50.6cm jump (±1 frame precision)

## ⚠️ Validation Status

**Current Status:** Pre-validation (not validated against force plates or motion capture systems)

### What This Tool IS Suitable For

✅ **Training monitoring** - Track relative changes within the same athlete over time
✅ **Educational purposes** - Learn about jump biomechanics and video analysis
✅ **Exploratory analysis** - Initial investigation before formal testing
✅ **Proof-of-concept research** - Demonstrate feasibility of video-based methods

### What This Tool IS NOT Suitable For

❌ **Research publications** - As a validated measurement instrument
❌ **Clinical decision-making** - Injury assessment, return-to-play decisions
❌ **Talent identification** - Absolute performance comparisons between athletes
❌ **Legal/insurance assessments** - Any context requiring validated measurements
❌ **High-stakes testing** - Draft combines, professional athlete evaluation

### Known Limitations

- **No force plate validation** - Accuracy claims are theoretical, not empirical
- **MediaPipe constraints** - Accuracy affected by lighting, clothing, occlusion, camera quality
- **Lower sampling rate** - Typical video (30-60fps) vs validated apps (120-240Hz)
- **Indirect measurement** - Landmarks → CoM estimation introduces potential error
- **No correction factors** - Unlike validated tools (e.g., MyJump), no systematic bias corrections applied

### Recommended Use

If you need validated measurements for research or clinical use, consider:

- **Commercial validated apps**: MyJump 2, MyJumpLab (smartphone-based, force plate validated)
- **Laboratory equipment**: Force plates, optical motion capture systems
- **Validation testing**: Compare kinemotion against validated equipment in your specific use case

For detailed validation status and roadmap, see [`docs/validation-status.md`](docs/validation-status.md).

## Setup

### System Requirements

**All Platforms:**

- Python 3.10, 3.11, or 3.12

**Platform-Specific:**

#### Windows

**Required system dependencies:**

- [Microsoft Visual C++ 2022 Redistributable](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/visual-cpp-build-tools/) - Runtime libraries for OpenCV/MediaPipe
- Python 3.10-3.12 (64-bit) - MediaPipe requires 64-bit Python

**Recommended for mobile video support:**

- [FFmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/download.html) - Download and add to PATH for full video codec support

#### macOS

**Required system dependencies:**

- Xcode Command Line Tools - Provides compilers and system frameworks

  ```bash
  xcode-select --install
  ```

**Recommended for mobile video support:**

```bash
brew install ffmpeg
```

#### Linux (Ubuntu/Debian)

**Recommended system libraries:**

```bash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y \
    libgl1 \           # OpenGL library for OpenCV
    libglib2.0-0 \     # GLib library for MediaPipe
    libgomp1 \         # OpenMP library for multi-threading
    ffmpeg             # Video codec support and metadata extraction
```

**Note:** `ffmpeg` provides the `ffprobe` tool for video metadata extraction (rotation, aspect ratio). Kinemotion works without it, but mobile/rotated videos may not process correctly. A warning will be shown if `ffprobe` is not available.

### Installation Methods

#### From PyPI (Recommended)

```bash
pip install kinemotion
```

#### From Source (Development)

**Step 1:** Install asdf plugins (if not already installed):

```bash
asdf plugin add python
asdf plugin add uv
```

**Step 2:** Install versions specified in `.tool-versions`:

```bash
asdf install
```

**Step 3:** Install project dependencies using uv:

```bash
uv sync
```

This will install all dependencies and make the `kinemotion` command available.

## Usage

Kinemotion supports two jump types with intelligent auto-tuning that automatically optimizes parameters based on video characteristics.

### Analyzing Drop Jumps

Analyzes reactive strength and ground contact time:

```bash
# Automatic parameter tuning based on video characteristics
kinemotion dropjump-analyze video.mp4
```

### Analyzing CMJ

Analyzes jump height and biomechanics:

```bash
# No drop height needed (floor level)
kinemotion cmj-analyze video.mp4

# With triple extension visualization
kinemotion cmj-analyze video.mp4 --output debug.mp4
```

### Common Options (Both Jump Types)

```bash
# Save metrics to JSON
kinemotion cmj-analyze video.mp4 --json-output results.json

# Generate debug video
kinemotion cmj-analyze video.mp4 --output debug.mp4

# Complete analysis with all outputs
kinemotion cmj-analyze video.mp4 \
  --output debug.mp4 \
  --json-output results.json \
  --verbose
```

### Quality Presets

```bash
# Fast (50% faster, good for batch)
kinemotion cmj-analyze video.mp4 --quality fast

# Balanced (default)
kinemotion cmj-analyze video.mp4 --quality balanced

# Accurate (research-grade)
kinemotion cmj-analyze video.mp4 --quality accurate --verbose
```

### Batch Processing

Process multiple videos in parallel:

```bash
# Drop jumps
kinemotion dropjump-analyze videos/*.mp4 --batch --workers 4

# CMJ with output directories
kinemotion cmj-analyze videos/*.mp4 --batch --workers 4 \
  --json-output-dir results/ \
  --csv-summary summary.csv
```

### Quality Assessment

All analysis outputs include automatic quality assessment in the metadata section to help you know when to trust results:

```json
{
  "data": {
    "jump_height_m": 0.352,
    "flight_time_ms": 534.2
  },
  "metadata": {
    "quality": {
      "confidence": "high",
      "quality_score": 87.3,
      "quality_indicators": {
        "avg_visibility": 0.89,
        "min_visibility": 0.82,
        "tracking_stable": true,
        "phase_detection_clear": true,
        "outliers_detected": 2,
        "outlier_percentage": 1.5,
        "position_variance": 0.0008,
        "fps": 60.0
      },
      "warnings": []
    }
  }
}
```

**Confidence Levels:**

- **High** (score ≥75): Trust these results, good tracking quality
- **Medium** (score 50-74): Use with caution, check quality indicators
- **Low** (score \<50): Results may be unreliable, review warnings

**Common Warnings:**

- Poor lighting or occlusion detected
- Unstable landmark tracking (jitter)
- High outlier rate (tracking glitches)
- Low frame rate (\<30fps)
- Unclear phase transitions

**Filtering by Quality:**

```python
# Only use high-confidence results
metrics = process_cmj_video("video.mp4")
if metrics.quality_assessment is not None and metrics.quality_assessment.confidence == "high":
    print(f"Reliable jump height: {metrics.jump_height:.3f}m")
elif metrics.quality_assessment is not None:
    print(f"Low quality - warnings: {metrics.quality_assessment.warnings}")
```

## Python API

Use kinemotion as a library for automated pipelines and custom analysis.

### Drop Jump API

```python
from kinemotion import process_dropjump_video

# Process a single video
metrics = process_dropjump_video(
    video_path="athlete_jump.mp4",
    quality="balanced",
    verbose=True
)

# Access results
print(f"Jump height: {metrics.jump_height:.3f} m")
print(f"Ground contact time: {metrics.ground_contact_time * 1000:.1f} ms")
print(f"Flight time: {metrics.flight_time * 1000:.1f} ms")
```

### Bulk Video Processing

```python
# Drop jump bulk processing
from kinemotion import DropJumpVideoConfig, process_dropjump_videos_bulk

configs = [
    DropJumpVideoConfig("video1.mp4", quality="balanced"),
    DropJumpVideoConfig("video2.mp4", quality="accurate"),
]

results = process_dropjump_videos_bulk(configs, max_workers=4)

# CMJ bulk processing
from kinemotion import CMJVideoConfig, process_cmj_videos_bulk

cmj_configs = [
    CMJVideoConfig("cmj1.mp4"),
    CMJVideoConfig("cmj2.mp4", quality="accurate"),
]

cmj_results = process_cmj_videos_bulk(cmj_configs, max_workers=4)

for result in cmj_results:
    if result.success:
        print(f"{result.video_path}: {result.metrics.jump_height*100:.1f}cm")
```

See `examples/bulk/README.md` for comprehensive API documentation.

### CMJ-Specific Features

```python
# Triple extension angles available in metrics
metrics = process_cmj_video("video.mp4", output_video="debug.mp4")

# Debug video shows:
# - Skeleton overlay (foot→shin→femur→trunk)
# - Joint angles (ankle, knee, hip, trunk)
# - Phase-coded visualization
```

### CSV Export Example

```python
# See examples/bulk/ for complete CSV export examples
from kinemotion import process_cmj_video
import csv

# ... process videos ...
with open("results.csv", "w", newline="") as f:
    writer = csv.writer(f)
    writer.writerow(["Video", "GCT (ms)", "Flight (ms)", "Jump (m)"])

    for r in results:
        if r.success and r.metrics:
            writer.writerow([
                Path(r.video_path).name,
                f"{r.metrics.ground_contact_time * 1000:.1f}" if r.metrics.ground_contact_time else "N/A",
                f"{r.metrics.flight_time * 1000:.1f}" if r.metrics.flight_time else "N/A",
                f"{r.metrics.jump_height:.3f}" if r.metrics.jump_height else "N/A",
            ])
```

**See [examples/bulk/README.md](examples/bulk/README.md) for comprehensive API documentation and more examples.**

## Configuration Options

### Intelligent Auto-Tuning

Kinemotion automatically optimizes parameters based on your video:

- **FPS-based scaling**: 30fps, 60fps, 120fps videos use different thresholds automatically
- **Quality-based adjustments**: Adapts smoothing based on MediaPipe tracking confidence
- **Always enabled**: Outlier rejection, curvature analysis, drop start detection

### Parameters

All parameters are optional. Kinemotion uses intelligent auto-tuning to select optimal settings based on video characteristics.

- `--quality [fast|balanced|accurate]` (default: balanced)

  - **fast**: Quick analysis, less precise (~50% faster)
  - **balanced**: Good accuracy/speed tradeoff (recommended)
  - **accurate**: Research-grade analysis, slower (maximum precision)

- `--verbose` / `-v`

  - Show auto-selected parameters and analysis details
  - Useful for understanding what the tool is doing

- `--output <path>` / `-o`

  - Generate annotated debug video with pose tracking visualization

- `--json-output <path>` / `-j`

  - Save metrics to JSON file instead of stdout

### Expert Overrides (Rarely Needed)

For advanced users who need manual control:

- `--drop-start-frame <int>`: Manually specify where drop begins (if auto-detection fails)
- `--smoothing-window <int>`: Override auto-tuned smoothing window
- `--velocity-threshold <float>`: Override auto-tuned velocity threshold
- `--min-contact-frames <int>`: Override auto-tuned minimum contact frames
- `--visibility-threshold <float>`: Override visibility threshold
- `--detection-confidence <float>`: Override MediaPipe detection confidence
- `--tracking-confidence <float>`: Override MediaPipe tracking confidence

> **📖 For detailed parameter explanations, see [docs/reference/parameters.md](docs/reference/parameters.md)**
>
> **Note:** Most users never need expert parameters - auto-tuning handles optimization automatically!

### Debug Video

The debug video includes:

- **Green circle**: Average foot position when on ground
- **Red circle**: Average foot position when in air
- **Yellow circles**: Individual foot landmarks (ankles, heels)
- **State indicator**: Current contact state (on_ground/in_air)
- **Phase labels**: "GROUND CONTACT" and "FLIGHT PHASE" during relevant periods
- **Peak marker**: "PEAK HEIGHT" at maximum jump height
- **Frame number**: Current frame index

## Troubleshooting

### Poor Tracking Quality

**Symptoms**: Erratic landmark positions, missing detections, incorrect contact states

**Solutions**:

1. **Check video quality**: Ensure the athlete is clearly visible in profile view
1. **Increase smoothing**: Use `--smoothing-window 7` or higher
1. **Adjust detection confidence**: Try `--detection-confidence 0.6` or `--tracking-confidence 0.6`
1. **Generate debug video**: Use `--output` to visualize what's being tracked

### No Pose Detected

**Symptoms**: "No frames processed" error or all null landmarks

**Solutions**:

1. **Verify video format**: OpenCV must be able to read the video
1. **Check framing**: Ensure full body is visible in side view
1. **Lower confidence thresholds**: Try `--detection-confidence 0.3 --tracking-confidence 0.3`
1. **Test video playback**: Verify video opens correctly with standard video players

### Incorrect Contact Detection

**Symptoms**: Wrong ground contact times, flight phases not detected

**Solutions**:

1. **Generate debug video**: Visualize contact states to diagnose the issue
1. **Adjust velocity threshold**:
   - If missing contacts: decrease to `--velocity-threshold 0.01`
   - If false contacts: increase to `--velocity-threshold 0.03`
1. **Adjust minimum frames**: `--min-contact-frames 5` for longer required contact
1. **Check visibility**: Lower `--visibility-threshold 0.3` if feet are partially obscured

### Jump Height Seems Wrong

**Symptoms**: Unrealistic jump height values

**Solutions**:

1. **Check video quality**: Ensure video frame rate is adequate (30fps or higher recommended)
1. **Verify flight time detection**: Check `flight_start_frame` and `flight_end_frame` in JSON
1. **Compare measurements**: JSON output includes both `jump_height_m` (primary) and `jump_height_kinematic_m` (kinematic-only)
1. **Check for drop jump detection**: If doing a drop jump, ensure first phase is elevated enough (>5% of frame height)

### Video Codec Issues

**Symptoms**: Cannot write debug video or corrupted output

**Solutions**:

1. **Install additional codecs**: Ensure OpenCV has proper video codec support
1. **Try different output format**: Use `.avi` extension instead of `.mp4`
1. **Check output path**: Ensure write permissions for output directory

## How It Works

1. **Pose Tracking**: MediaPipe extracts 2D pose landmarks (foot points: ankles, heels, foot indices) from each frame
1. **Position Calculation**: Averages ankle, heel, and foot index positions to determine foot location
1. **Smoothing**: Savitzky-Golay filter reduces tracking jitter while preserving motion dynamics
1. **Contact Detection**: Analyzes vertical position velocity to identify ground contact vs. flight phases
1. **Phase Identification**: Finds continuous ground contact and flight periods
   - Automatically detects drop jumps vs regular jumps
   - For drop jumps: identifies box → drop → ground contact → jump sequence
1. **Sub-Frame Interpolation**: Estimates exact transition times between frames
   - Uses Savitzky-Golay derivative for smooth velocity calculation
   - Linear interpolation of velocity to find threshold crossings
   - Achieves sub-millisecond timing precision (at 30fps: ±10ms vs ±33ms)
   - Reduces timing error by 60-70% for contact and flight measurements
   - Smoother velocity curves eliminate false threshold crossings
1. **Trajectory Curvature Analysis**: Refines transitions using acceleration patterns
   - Computes second derivative (acceleration) from position trajectory
   - Detects landing impact by acceleration spike
   - Identifies takeoff by acceleration change patterns
   - Provides independent validation and refinement of velocity-based detection
1. **Metric Calculation**:
   - Ground contact time = contact phase duration (using fractional frames)
   - Flight time = flight phase duration (using fractional frames)
   - Jump height = kinematic estimate from flight time: (g × t²) / 8

## Limitations

- **2D Analysis**: Only analyzes motion in the camera's view plane
- **Validation Status**: ⚠️ Accuracy has not been validated against gold standard measurements (force plates, 3D motion capture)
- **Side View Required**: Must film from the side to accurately track vertical motion
- **Single Athlete**: Designed for analyzing one athlete at a time
- **Timing precision**:
  - 30fps videos: ±10ms with sub-frame interpolation (vs ±33ms without)
  - 60fps videos: ±5ms with sub-frame interpolation (vs ±17ms without)
  - Higher frame rates still beneficial for better temporal resolution
- **Drop jump detection**: Requires first ground phase to be >5% higher than second ground phase

## Future Enhancements

- Advanced camera calibration (intrinsic parameters, lens distortion)
- Multi-angle analysis support
- Automatic camera orientation detection
- Real-time analysis from webcam
- Comparison with reference values
- Force plate integration for validation
