HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR PLAYERS’ PERFORMANCE WITH AI

The business of sport is changing. As the industry becomes increasingly more
competitive, sports clubs are looking at how they can optimise athletes’
performance through technology. It used to be that even the best teams would
rely on statistics and a handful of coaches with a deep knowledge of the game to
advise players. Now, sports analytic departments are popping up in nearly all
major professional sports companies. The ever-decreasing margins of error
expected in the sports industry have made AI applications a necessity. It is so
prevalent that AI for application in the sports industry has a predicted value
of 19.2 billion dollars by 2030.


WHAT IS SPORTS PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS?

Sports performance analysis is the study of skill, physical fitness, strategy,
and tactics as they relate to modern sports. This analysis is conducted by human
action recognition software. The main objective is to identify and maximise the
talents of athletes. The analysis can then be used to design competitive
strategies.

Sports like rugby and football are fast-paced and close contact, making them
notoriously difficult to analyse. Fortunately, this fits right into the scope of
AI. Computer vision can measure even the most complex metrics. The vast amount
of footage available across every sport satisfies deep learning models. While
every video is slightly different, each sport adheres to a set of rules. This
allows AI applications to sharpen their algorithms. Understanding a player’s
performance requires assessing a predetermined set of game parameters during a
live session. This is accomplished through player tracking, event recognition,
and real-time ball tracking.

Computer vision and optical sensors provide coaches with actionable insights
into how their athletes can improve performance and adapt to different playing
conditions. Not only can AI be utilised to understand a team’s dynamics, but it
can also be harnessed to break down the defence of their opponents. The ability
to objectively analyse what players are doing could have a long-term impact on
strategic decisions.


HOW DOES AI HELP ATHLETES IMPROVE THEIR PERFORMANCE?

With the advent of cutting-edge technology such as wearable monitors and player
tracking systems, AI has the potential to transform a simple piece of equipment
into a versatile tool. This tool can interpret data in real-time and predict
performance with pinpoint accuracy. Sensors collect information such as running
speeds and the accuracy of players’ movements. The data gathered by these
wearable devices are then analysed and fed into machine-learning algorithms to
generate useful datasets.

AI also has the ability to provide both predictive and diagnostic
functionalities. Such functions allow coaches and managers to monitor and manage
the health, fitness, and safety of athletes. Health data also has the ability to
inform players of their capabilities, strengths, and weaknesses.

Coaches can better prepare players with the help of video intelligence models
and visual dashboards. This increases transparency for players by providing
valuable insights into how to improve and track progress over time. With access
to performance data, athlete performance can be optimised across every point of
the game. 


GEMMO: AI FOR SPORTS VIDEO ANALYSIS

Computer vision is a champion of pushing the boundaries within cutting-edge
sports analytics. The potential range of application is immense when detecting
events solely from video. At Gemmo, we have algorithms in place for event
detection, player tracking, and ball tracking for use in football, rugby, and
Gaelic sports.

 * Event Detection: Historically, events like goals, passes, and tackles are
   identified by human spectators. However, using Gemmo’s APIs (for team
   attribution and heat maps), these key events can be recognised and
   catalogued. Live event data can then be benchmarked against historical data
   and KPIs to analyse performance.

 * Player Tracking: Gemmo’s team attribution API identifies and tracks teams
   from video data. The API can deliver insight-rich data on team performance
   overall. To identify and track individual players, a box can be built around
   each player to trace their movements. Utilising cameras and sensors teamed
   with our bespoke computer vision solutions, we can gather key statistics.

 * Ball Tracking: Ball tracking is an essential part of event detection. Without
   the ability to track the ball, key events like goals can go missed. Using a
   camera and sensor system for detection, computer vision tracks key events, as
   well as the speed and velocity of the ball.


FINAL THOUGHTS 

Finding patterns in motion and improving play has always been a struggle for
both players and coaches. With the use of AI, these struggles become completely
obtainable goals. It is possible now to not only mine immense amounts of game
data, but also to use it to continually detect mistakes made during gameplay and
improve sporting efforts overall.
