The Lolo Jones Project Athletics
In this April 19, 2012, photo provided by Red Bull, Lolo Jones runs hurdles for Project X at the Louisiana State University campus in Baton Rouge, La. Using computer-vision technology and 40 high-speed, motion-capture cameras, computer scientists, along with sports biomechanics and physiologists, have been studying every minute detail of Jones' form in practice as they try to figure out the fastest way to get her over the hurdles. Jones' technique was captured on film, scrutinized on a video screen and sharpened on the track in a hush-hush program Red Bull dubbed "Project X." (AP Photo/Red Bull, Stacy Kranitz)
