  1. This is my first attempt at a thread here at SFN.I've been lurking around for a while,satisfying my curiosity reading and using the search function.It was recommended to me to first present my question in the engineering section,but possibly not limited to it. I'm a long time pool player,roughly 35-40 years.I'm a student of the game.Being a student I cannot go through a day without asking questions of how things work and why.Billiard games have been around for hundreds of years.The effects on a table are heavily governed by the laws of physics and geometry and have been written about extensively.My physical skills are diminishing,but my thirst for more definable understanding has never been higher.I am pushed on by the fact my area of the US,(small population base),has developed,arguably,the best player in America at this time.This young man is poetry in motion and I get to watch him play all over the world via live streaming and play him when he's home for holidays. My question is related to scoring and displaying.More clearly defining with statistics and information and archiving the data.What are the possibilities and creative ways to register billiard balls on a billiard table relative to themselves,the rails and the bed.Ultimately every detail and nuance captured and recorded.Maybe some answers would come from engineering-manufacturing or optics,computer science or possibly Astronomy.Maybe even something like medical procedures or devises or any combination of these disciplines. Simple to extravagant. Search suggestions would be great. I am not a great communicator.If there is a need for responses,they may be slow.I'm thankful for finding this site.What a wonderful resource of people and thoughts. Thank you
  2. Thank you,that was my first thought. Merged post follows: Consecutive posts merged Thanks for the reply.
  3.
