PoolLiveAid is ceiling mounted camera that picks up where the edges of the pool table are, where the cue ball is, and tracks where your pool cue is. Using an on the fly gaming processor the device determines the best angle needed to sink your shot.

This was made for a conference project by Luise Sousa, Ricardo Alves, and J.M.F. Rodigues of the University of Algarve in Portugal, so it is just a prototype. But even in its beginning stages, this type of device offers hope for those who lack hand eye coordination, an understanding of physics, and or a need for lessons in trajectory, all necessary in game of pool.
