Sony patents method to measure motion speed between independent data points

Sony describes a system that fills in the gaps between two separate pieces of movement data to create a smooth path. It then uses this filled-in path to calculate how fast the object was moving at each point.

In the filing’s own words

An information processing device including circuitry configured to obtain interpolation motion data that interpolates between first motion data and second motion data that are temporally and spatially independent, and calculate an index related to motion velocity of each motion data based on the first motion data, the second motion data, and the obtained interpolation motion data.
