############################################################################## Overview. ############################################################################## Welcome to uMPS! UMPS is a complete virtual machine simulator based around the MIPS R2/3000 microprocessor. ############################################################################## Installation & Prerequisites ############################################################################## a) Normal builds (building from archives) Prerequisites: - Qt 4.6.x or later - libelf - Boost (headers) 1.34+ - libsigc 2.0 The usual 'configure/make/make install' mantra applies. Detailed configuration/installation instructions can be found in the file./INSTALL. B) Building from git You need to configure with `-enable-maintainer-mode' when building from git.
Apart from the dependencies listed above, you will also need a MIPS cross toolchain in your PATH. `configure' will do its best to detect one; if that fails, you can pass the toolchain tool prefix to configure using `-with-mips-tool-prefix=PREFIX'. Known prefixes are: `mips(el)-elf-', `mips(el)-linux-', `mips-sde-elf-', 'mips-linux-gnu-'.
Pilots have flight simulators where they can practice flying, without flying a real airplane. In umpiring, we only get to 'practice' calling balls and strikes during actual games. Does anyone know of an 'umpiring simulator' that you can run on your own computer, for practice calling balls and strikes?
Looking around online, I couldn't find one. I know a bit about writing 3D simulations in the computer language Python. So, I tried writing an umpiring simulator.
I'm not completely satisfied with it. It's missing a catcher, which actually makes it much harder to call balls and strikes (no surprise).
But it's not too bad, I think. If anything, it might be useful in convincing someone that a catcher plays a large role in calling balls and strikes. I'm looking for a way to share this simulator, here on U-E. Normally, to run a Python program you first need to install the Python programming language on your computer. But, to avoid that first step, I tried making a separate executable program for the simulator, but couldn't figure it out.
So, if anyone wants to try this simulator, the first step is to install the Python programming language on your computer. Luckily, Python is not very difficult to install, and run. The simulator gives you a 3D view from the slot, with a RHB. The plate, batter's boxes, dirt circle, and pitcher's mound are present. You hit any key and an 80 mph fastball is thrown. The ball follows the laws of physics, and looks similar to those pitches you see on the mlb.com Gameday display.
The exact initial direction of the pitch is randomly selected to produce a strike or ball somewhat near the strike zone (no wild pitches). The ball's flight stops at approximately where the catcher would catch the ball.
You decide on your call, then hit any key, and a strike zone box (like the pitch f/x box) appears. Hit any key and the pitch is repeated with the strike zone displayed; when the ball passes the front edge of the plate, a stationary image of the ball is displayed, again like in the pitch f/x display during a televised game, so you can check your call. Hit the key again, the strike zone is erased, and your're ready to start a new pitch. Attached are two screen shots. The first shows the scene before the pitch.
In either screen shot, there are two images so that by crossing your eyes, you can see a 3D view of the scene (alternatively, the simulator can be run so that two colored images are made, and with colored '3D' glasses, you can see a 3D scene). The second screen shot shows the scene after the repeat of a pitch, showing the strike zone and ball image at the front edge of the plate. There is this cool thing in my town called Virtual Baseball. Basically, you pay $30 for thirty minutes with the machine (which turned into an hour because the owner was cool and we were the only people there). There is a batting cage with a real 60' distance. There is a cage behind the batter and a small room there with a computer.
On the computer, you choose. Level (Anything from 10U to MLB) - Set or windup - Pitcher handedness - Pitch type (pretty much every option but knuckle) - Pitch speed (40mph-100mph) - Pitch location (to an extent, it's not perfect) - Number of pitches in the series When you set it, a video projection of the pitcher you chose comes on the screen in front of you, where you would normally see the cage. The pitcher's projection goes through the windup (or stretch), and when the delivery would come, the ball comes out of the shoot exactly how you wanted it. It's pretty wicked.
I got to stand behind the plate with an umpires view (on a cinderblock behind the cage) for about twenty 100mph fastballs plus some splitters, cutters, sliders, and curves, while my friend tried to hit them (he sent one back up the middle, tipped another, and missed the rest). It was cool from an umpires perspective!
To install Python, and the necessary VPython component, go to In the upper left, under Download, click on the appropriate choice for your machine (Windows, Macintosh, or Linux). On the page that opens, follow the directions to download and install Python, then download and install VPython. The page gives you all the necessary links. I am familiar with the Windows instructions only. Once Python and VPython are installed, an icon labeled 'VIDLE for VPython' will appear on your Windows desktop. Double-click it to open it. Copy and paste the source code from the above post into this window.
Save the program anywhere you want on your file system (Desktop is fine). Give the file a name like pitch.py (the.py is necessary). Then hit the F5 key to run it! You can adjust the view by holding down the right mouse key and moving the mouse. You can zoom in or out by holding down both the right and left mouse keys, and moving the mouse. Cross your eyes so the two different views converge in the middle - and you should see a 3D view of the scene!
Hit any key on the keyboard and a pitch will be thrown. After the pitch is thrown, hit a key and a strike zone appears. Hit another key and the same pitch is repeated with the strike zone in place. Repeat for additional pitches. Let me know how it works!
The intention is good, but one of the keys to a good strike zone is following the ball with your eyes through the strike zone and into the catcher's glove. Then you call the pitch. Tracking the ball with your eyes is paramount to being successful behind the plate. It is very hard not to be consistent, if you have proper head height, are in the slot correctly, body is square and you are tracking pitches with your eyes successfully.
In order to use a simulator, you'd have to be able to set the parameters so that the umpire's viewpoint is correctly in the slot, the right height, and that you are able to track the ball with your eyes into the catchers glove. I don't see how the present configuration allows that and can be detrimental when the umpire goes into a real game because he's conditioning himself to looking at a computer screen. I don't think at the level of software presently, (no disrespect intended), that you are able to get the ball to break like a curve, drop like a slider, float like a knuckler, or sink like a sinker. I know this is in development stages.

Here are somethings that are, in my opinion, ok: 1) It's 3-D, not a 2-D view.
2) The ball's trajectory is pretty realistic. The trajectory is calculated according to the laws of physics. It's not a guess as to how the ball should move. I could add a realistic curve, sinker, etc. Actually, this is probably a sinker now, since spin is ignored in this version (so no lifting force at all). 3) You can change your view point at will, using the mouse.

So, you can set yourself up wherever you wish. Here are some things that could be done better: 1) There is no catcher!!!!!! As you point out, the catcher is an important piece of the process of calling pitches. Unfortunately, adding a realistic catcher would be very hard to program well. 2) Yes, you can move your perspective, but you can't quite get up close to the catcher/plate where you would have to look down to see the catcher's head and forward to see the pitcher. In other words, the computer screen is just a 'window' through which you look at the 3-D scene. Really great would be a simulator built literally around the user - like for pilots.
This could be done in a 'cave' environment (it's a room-like setting on the walls of which are displayed the 3-D, all-around, scene. But, you need to have a cave room (there are only a few in the US, as far as I know). It is much more difficult to call pitches WITHOUT the catcher! From this program you can dramatically see that a catcher helps quite a bit.
It helps to see how the catcher moves, catches the pitch, turns over or does not turn over this mitt, extends his arm, reaches, does not reach, etc., etc., etc. That was, for me, the really interesting thing I very dramatically saw from writing this program.
The trajectory of the ball is only 'half' the story. The other half is tracking it into the mitt and watching how it is received by the catcher.
Now, if I could program that into the simulator, it would improve tremendously. 'Too much time on my hands' It looks like from a google search you are in a Technology Corridor in that area. Is this what all those in this corridor do with too much time on their hands also? Better watch out, somebody else around there may be trying this also. Maybe some future catcher or umpire. Hurry up and beat them and patent the technology or sell it to TUS and HW so everyone can go to the simulator each day, just like pilots. Also sell to MLB so after a plate job that shows you missed that slider on the corner at the knees, you could practice before the next plate job.
