Vision-based sports analytics for Europe’s top football clubs

Football is not only the world’s favourite pastime, but also a multi-billion-dollar industry. Individual players can command millions of dollars in salaries and transfer fees.

With so much at stake, coaches and scouts need to make the most informed personnel choices, then, keep their players on top condition. For the most advanced real-time empirical data, top European clubs rely on Anton Paar SportsTec skills.lab solutions. By combining complex algorithms with Teledyne FLIR cameras, skills.lab provides coaching staff with complete holistic views of a player’s capabilities including detailed information to create individual training & recovery programs.

To cover the entire pitch and analyse details such as ball handling time, ball speeds & trajectories in real time with distances of up to 60 meters, the system uses 10GE Oryx cameras for analysing data and Grasshopper3 cameras for both recording and interactive live streaming onto 360° projection screens.
