Pool table on a ship

by snooks on Jan.11, 2009, under Video

Ever heard of a pool table on a boat?  Well check this video out.  Its a gyroscopically balanced pool table.  I have to say that it does look amazing and seems to play quite well.  If anyone knows who makes this table we would be interested to do a full review.

Digitally Assisted Billiards

by snooks on Jan.11, 2009, under Video

These guys have done an amazing job creating a digitally assisted billiards system.  The systems basically is a webcam, projector and some software.   This simple ideas are always the genius ones.  The system maps and projects the trajectories of the cueball and object balls.  This really would be a great learning tool.

Some great footage here.  I want one!

Billiard Collisions in Slow Motion

by admin on Jan.04, 2009, under Video

A description of the DVD below from Andreas Efler the creator of this DVD video

While working on my book about three-cushion billiards
an idea to make a DVD slowly developed. With a good
friend, Robert Leitner, this DVD arose and with it,
material never seen.
Using highspeed(Up to 16000 pictures per second)and
infrared cameras, we can now see billiards from a
different angle.

The bonus material contains:
Bubbles of soap blasting, waterdrops falling into its
natural element, lightening matches and much more.
Using a highspeed camera taking thousands of frames per
second, the results were and are amazing.

DVD-Type: DVD 5
Format: Pal 4:3
Sound: PCM stereo
Length: 25min.
Genre: Sport, Science
