Advancing Biomechanical Analysis: DVS X-Ray 3.0 Introduces Automated DVS Scores for Amateur Baseball

Written By DVS Baseball

DVS X-Ray 3.0 is now automating DVS Scores for amateur baseball.

DVS X-Ray Version 3.0 can utilize two cameras recording 240 frames per second, strategically positioned to capture side and rear views focused on the same pitch. This setup is designed to generate an automated DVS Scores for our clients.

Automated DVS Scores for our clients are a feature of version 3.0 and require sufficient cameras, shutter speeds, framing, lighting, and contrast to enhance the accuracy of each DVS Score. Our collaboration with John Viguerie, an expert in computer vision and photogrammetry, has paved a pathway for larger youth organizations to offer a biomechanical solution.

For less than $3500, our clients can purchase an approved Biomech kit compatible with DVS X-Ray 3.0. Prior to DVS X-Ray 3.0 being sold to any client, we test their current cameras and setup to determine the potential combination of automated and manual scores.

Our goal is to empower communities with an affordable biomechanics solution, offering actionable insights for pitchers. This solution grants them distribution of their own DVS Scores throughout the entire process.

While technology evolves, manual scoring remains central to generating reliable DVS Scores for most of our X-Ray clients, particularly the early stages of amateur baseball.

Together, we can help save more youth arms through awareness and education about the pitching delivery.

DVS Baseball

DVS Baseball, which stands for Delivery Value System, was created in light of the current epidemic of throwing-related injuries in the game of baseball.  The surgery rate among pitchers has continued to rise over the past decade due to various culture-related factors, including an increased emphasis on throwing velocity, college scholarships, and year-round playing.  In an effort to find answers as to why some pitchers get hurt and others do not, we began a formal study that analyzed mechanical patterns from past and current MLB Pitchers. Our research, now published in Orthopedics Medical Journal, continues to evolve to help MLB Organizations understand a pitcher’s true value. Additionally, we implement the DVS Baseball pitching development program for pitchers to extend their longevity, decrease injury risk, and maximize performance in games. .
