Abstract
The ski jump is scored by judges based on flight distance, style and performance. Generally, the flight distance has to be measured by many judges (distance measurers and recorder) according the FIS (Federation Internationale de Ski) rule.
From the view point of real-time automated distance measurement in ski jump and effective utilization of a motorized video theodolite, a simulated ski jump was performed in a room by using a motorized video theodolite and an automated distance measurement method was investigated in this paper.
