Thinking of all the baseball applications here: catcher signals, third base coach, head coach etc.
Genuine question, I don't know how baseball works.

Cant wait for the pixel 4. No doubt this will be put to use.

You can buy a LeapMotion and stick it to the front of Rift right now. I've done it, it's amazingly immersive and feels fantastic.
I really wonder how this compares to the LeapMotion tracking. My suspicion is that the leap tracking is now hardened by years of real world experience, so it's probably ahead of anything that's still in the R&D stage. But hard to know without testing it.
I've started to get really interested in lower-budget and/or easier motion tracking for special effects. I've been looking at optical motion tracking with a multi camera setup, and optical facial tracking. With the right math and assumptions, you could capture a full performance with little to no specialized equipment. I've been wondering if ML could output enough detail to make it feasible.

This article doesn't actual mention anywhere but it implies it's doing all this with a regular camera. LeapMotion and others use more complex sensors. The ML approach is really impressive but getting clearer input would seem to be a more reliable approach.
The underlying project MediaPipe looks pretty cool: https://github.com/google/mediapipe/blob/master/mediapipe/do... I wonder why they didn't build it on top of one of the gazillion flow-based visual programming languages instead?
And also Google has NIH syndrome, it's hard to think of any outside projects they use besides the Linux software stack and LLVM.
