Typical fields of application in sports and entertainment

From analyzing entire games, reviewing motion sequences, measuring speeds to virtual or augmented realities: our vision solutions cover a wide range of applications.

Sports and game analysis

Camera recordings in sports enable coaches to analyze motion sequences and referees to make calls using goal line technology. The requirements for vision systems include the processing of large amounts of data, high resolutions, and large bandwidths over long distances.

Motion analysis

Motion capture plays a significant role in many industries such as research, sports, fashion, health, and entertainment, for which excellent image quality and processing of large amounts of data is essential.

Speed measurement

Cameras can be used to measure speed in car races, as well as running speed and crossing order at finish lines. In ball sports such as baseball, soccer, and also golf, ball speeds can be analyzed.

AR & VR

Computer vision is increasingly the basis for virtual & augmented reality applications such as simulations and smart glasses. 3D scanners for applications including avatars in the metaverse or in VR environments, support for the 3D film industry or interactive multi-touch tables, require high-quality computer vision.

Use cases in sports & entertainment
