AI volleyball video analysis turns a short phone recording into measurable biomechanics feedback. Get joint angles, kinematic sequence, landing mechanics, and injury risk screening — the kind of analysis that used to require a biomechanics lab. No team required.
Start Free TrialTraditional volleyball video analysis requires a biomechanics lab, motion capture cameras, and $500+ per session. AI volleyball video analysis replaces that with computer vision that runs on your phone. The research is clear: the biomechanical metrics that predict performance and injury risk can be measured from 2D video with accuracy approaching lab-grade motion capture systems.
The AI uses MediaPipe pose estimation to track 33 body landmarks frame by frame — shoulders, hips, knees, ankles, wrists — building a skeleton model of your movement from 2D phone video.
From the skeleton data, the AI calculates joint angles, velocities, and timing — hip-shoulder separation, penultimate step interval, arm cocking angle, knee valgus at landing, ground contact time, and approach speed in physical units (meters, degrees, mph).
Your metrics are compared to position-specific elite benchmarks across 7 PRISM dimensions. The AI identifies which biomechanical areas are below threshold and generates a deficiency report with coaching cues.
From your diagnosed deficiencies, the AI prescribes a position-specific training program with 500+ exercises — each selected because it targets a specific biomechanical weakness found in your video. The program adapts as your PRISM score improves.
Hip-shoulder separation timing, penultimate step interval, arm cocking angle, contact height, and swing velocity. See exactly where your power leaks.
Toss height, contact point, shoulder rotation, and ball trajectory prediction. Identify whether your serve mechanics are limiting power or accuracy.
Platform angle, footwork timing, body positioning relative to the ball, and reaction movement patterns for liberos and defensive specialists.
Hand contact mechanics, wrist extension, hip-square-to-target footwork, and release timing for setters at every level.
The rotational power transfer between your hips and shoulders during your approach. More separation = more power.
The interval between your second-to-last and last step. Optimal timing converts horizontal speed into vertical jump height.
Inward knee collapse on landing. High valgus is the #1 predictor of ACL injury risk in volleyball.
The angle of your hitting arm at maximum cock-back. Optimal angle maximizes whip velocity and contact power.
Vertical position of your hand at ball contact. Higher contact = more court available and harder to block.
The order and timing of energy transfer through your body segments. A disrupted sequence means lost power.
How long your feet stay on the floor during approach and jumps. Shorter contact = more reactive power.
Left-right imbalance in your landing pattern. Asymmetric landing predicts overuse injuries and power loss.
