Technology has a profound impact on many industries, including the sports. Artificial Intelligence in particular has completely disrupted the sports industry, enabling the precise analysis of the performances of players. SportsVision is an advanced sports analytics platform powered by Artificial Intelligence, Deep Learning and Computer Vision for both off and on the field analytics that caters to the needs of everyone involved in sports management. It enables coaches and managers to analyze and enhance the performances of players with vision-centric insights like never before. Once the videos are uploaded onto the SportsVision platform, the deep learning algorithms provide multiple insights such as automated actions, event tagging, pose analysis, player tracker, and rating application as needed.
