A method of object surface matching includes identifying an object in-flight in an image; identifying a feature on the object that is in a first spatial position; comparing the feature with set of template images; identifying a first template image in the set of template images that matches the feature on the object that is in the first spatial position; determining first coordinates for the first spatial position based on the first template image; identifying a second image of the object that includes the feature on the object that is in a second spatial position; identifying a second template image in the set of template images that matches the feature on the object that is in the second spatial position; determining second coordinates for the second spatial position based on the second template image; and generating a spin value for the object based on the first and second coordinates.
