What the System Refuses to Measure
Three measured refusals in a markerless movement pipeline, the gaps that are still open, and why a clinician should prefer software that says not measured.

Finding Sick Plants From the Sky: DINOv2, a Linear Probe, and a Farmer With a Drone
A frozen vision backbone, a linear probe trained on forty photos, and a three-tier fallback so that a drone survey works on day one.

Triangulation, and How Many Cameras You Actually Need
The multi-view path: DLT in enough detail to implement, how many cameras earn their place, and three lessons about evaluating a solver whose truth you cannot see.

From 26 Keypoints to Clinical Metrics
Two calibrated cameras, DLT triangulation, trajectory filtering, and honest uncertainty intervals: what turns a pose demo into a record a clinician will sign.

Teaching a Camera to Grade Its Own Footage
Camera obliquity is invisible to one lens, so the system infers it from anatomy. Banding its own error by that estimate beats banding by ground truth.

Angles Don't Lie: Measuring a Cricket Bowler's Action With a Webcam
Joint angles from pose estimation, event detection inside a 100-millisecond delivery swing, and the frame rate that decides what you are allowed to claim.

Facing, Sign, and the Error That Mirrors Everything
Which way an athlete faces sets the sign of every sagittal angle at once. One bit, 100 out of 100 on 919 comparisons, and why sign errors are not small.

Why 2D Beat 3D on the Angles That Matter
Lifting one camera to 3D sounds strictly better than measuring in the image plane. On sagittal flexion it is worse, and the reason is a free parameter.

From Pixels to a Knee Angle
The whole monocular pipeline for one number, and what the detector's pixel error costs once you express it in degrees instead of in average precision.

What "Accurate" Means For a Joint Angle
A percentage without a tolerance is not a claim. The full scorecard for a video biomechanics system, by configuration, and why 10 degrees settles it.
