Project description:
"I'm looking for a talented developer to build a lightweight web tool using Python, preferably with Streamlit, to analyze softball pitches. The tool should accept short video clips of softball pitches and use a Roboflow-trained model to detect the softball's position continuously from release to crossing the plate. I'll assist with dataset labeling and training.

Key Requirements:
- Develop a web tool using Streamlit
- Support video uploads in MP4 format
- Detect and track the softball's position in each frame
- Smooth and track the ball's path to reduce video noise
- Overlay the pitch trajectory on a 2D strike zone visualization or pitch plane
- Allow optional user-uploaded or drawn strike zone overlays
- Output the trajectory visualization with basic metrics like pitch path and estimated crossing position
- Provide a simple web UI for video uploads and result viewing

Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Proficiency in Python and experience with Streamlit
- Familiarity with video processing and computer vision techniques
- Experience with machine learning models, particularly using Roboflow
- Ability to create intuitive and user-friendly web interfaces
- Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail

I'm excited to collaborate on this project and bring this innovative tool to life!" (client-provided description)
