a fun side project to track Sumo stats.

Every two months there’s a 15-day tournament where 670 rikishi(sumo wrestler) fighting ~160 matches each day. I’m recording all the results and kimarite (winning moves) into a browsable database with charts and videos.

Recently I have been using Gemini to process and edit the daily match videos. It works surprising well. It can detect the start/end of each bout, recognise the wrestlers and assign the correct rikishi id to them.

Still early, but if you want to get into Sumo feel free to join! Its fun to watch and the matches are quick!
