Surfing is a sport deeply connected to ocean conditions, where wave quality determines the entire experience. Surfers worldwide rely on beach cameras to assess conditions before heading to the water, but this process is manual, subjective, and time-consuming. Current solutions lack precision and require expert knowledge to interpret visual cues from often distant, low-quality footage.
SwellSight was created to democratize wave analysis by providing surfers with:
- Objective measurements of wave height, direction, and breaking type
- Real-time analysis from existing beach cam infrastructure
- Accessible AI technology that works with standard beach cam footage
- Confidence scores to help surfers make informed decisions
By combining state-of-the-art computer vision models with domain-specific wave analysis, SwellSight transforms how surfers interact with wave forecasting technology.
Traditional wave analysis for surfing faces several critical challenges:
-
Manual Assessment Burden
- Surfers must visually estimate wave conditions from distant beach cams
- Requires experience and expertise to accurately judge wave metrics
- Time-consuming process that delays decision-making
-
Data Scarcity
- Limited availability of labeled wave imagery with ground truth metrics
- Expensive and time-consuming manual annotation of wave characteristics
- Insufficient training data for robust machine learning models
-
Measurement Inconsistency
- Subjective wave height estimates vary between observers
- Breaking type classification lacks standardization
- Direction assessment depends on viewing angle and experience
-
Environmental Challenges
- Poor visibility conditions (fog, rain, low light) make assessment difficult
- Distant camera angles reduce wave detail visibility
- Weather variations affect image quality and interpretation
How can we leverage AI and synthetic data generation to create an automated, accurate, and accessible wave analysis system that works with standard beach cam footage under diverse conditions?
SwellSight employs a three-stage hybrid pipeline where generative AI trains analytical AI:
