AB - High-cost modern sports analysis systems are predominantly utilized by elite athletes, creating a significant technology gap that limits access for amateur players and sports enthusiasts. To address this issue, this study proposes a practical method for measuring the movement distance of tennis players using only a single, commonly available camera. Our approach combines YOLOv8n and DeepSORT for robust player detection and tracking, followed by a homography transformation based on court keypoints to map 2D image coordinates to real-world metric coordinates. A Kalman filter is then applied to smooth the resulting trajectory and derive a reliable metric of movement distance. When tested on real tennis match footage, the proposed system achieved an average measurement accuracy of 85.26% relative to manual analysis tools, demonstrating its viability as a low-cost alternative.
