We see them rocket past Townsville Hall and down a street with a

clock tower. The time is just after 3:00; the second hand slows

down slightly. The image of the block begins to stretch and warp

as if the center part of it is being pulled down a sink drain. It

becomes a tunnel, with flashes of light all over its walls; the girls

fly along this. Blossom pulls into view first, followed by Bubbles. A

moment later, Buttercup roars past them, and Bubbles puts on an

extra burst of speed to catch up. The girls fly on, deadlocked; close-

up of Buttercup, sweating and straining to get out in front. After a

few moments, her body begins to elongate slightly. Pull back to

show all three girls, still in a dead tie. Freeze frame, the light trails

disappearing. Silence. Extreme close-up of Bubbles, panning slowly

across her face, then ofBlossoms feet, panning toward her head.

When the QWERTY keyboard was originally

designed by its inventor, the letter R was not

placed in the top row of the alphabets. But,

when it came to Remington and Sons, the

mechanics placed it there as a marketing

strategy.

Explain the strategy.

All X are based on the principles of triangulation using the visual

images and timing data provided by at least four high-speed video

cameras located at different locations and angles around the area of

play. The system rapidly processes the video feeds by a high-

speed video processor. A data store contains a predefined model of

the playing area and includes data on the rules of the game.

In each frame sent from each camera, the system identifies the group

of pixels which corresponds to the image of the object. It then

calculates for each frame the 3D position of the object by comparingits position on at least two of the physically separate cameras at the

same instant in time. A succession of frames builds up a record of the

path along which the object has travelled. It also "predicts" the

future flight path of the object and where it will interact with any ofthe playing area features already programmed into the database. The

system can also interpret these interactions to decide infringements

of the rules of the game.
