Auburn Biomechanics Lab Turns Live Pitch Data Into MLB Talent Pipeline

Auburn, Ala. – September 11, 2026 -- Auburn University's Sports Medicine and Movement Laboratory is capturing markerless motion-capture data on every pitch and every swing at Plainsman Park, converting real-time biomechanical footage into injury-prevention and performance analytics for collegiate and professional baseball.

Lab expands to three integrated sites tracking live game data

Director Gretchen Oliver's team operates an in-house facility inside the Kinesiology Building plus dedicated in-game and in-bullpen labs at Plainsman Park. Hidden cameras record markerless motion-capture data on pitchers and hitters during every home game and bullpen session, generating datasets on shoulder and elbow force loads that feed directly back to coaching staff.

Trust AI Embeds VELMENI's FDA-Cleared Dental AI Into Isaac Claims Engine

San Francisco – – September 11, 2026 -- Trust AI has wired VELMENI's FDA-cleared dental imaging AI directly into its Isaac PracticeOS platform, connecting radiographic diagnosis to a $299-per-month automated claims pipeline that has already recovered months of unbilled revenue at a California practice.

Isaac's agent swarm assembles claims the moment a dentist confirms a VELMENI finding

The integration places VELMENI for DENTISTS (V4D) 2D/3D radiographic analysis inside Isaac's RCM Hub, where automated agents identify payer-specific documentation requirements, select matching billing codes, and attach supporting radiographs before a claim is submitted. Every claim is reviewed by a licensed dentist and a billing specialist before it leaves the system. Trust AI CEO Bernard Casse said the company "wired it into the bloodstream" rather than treating the AI read as a standalone sidebar feature.
