Fünf Vorteile des Einsatzes von Player-Tracking-Systemen für die sportliche Leistung

Play­er tracking in sports is the use of advan­ced tech­no­lo­gy to moni­tor and record the move­ments and actions of ath­le­tes during a game or trai­ning ses­si­on. The data collec­ted with the help of play­er tracking sys­tems has nume­rous bene­fits for teams, coa­ches and play­ers. Here are five of them.

The data and ana­ly­sis that play­er tracking pro­vi­des can pro­vi­de insight into the effec­ti­ve­ness of a work­out or whe­ther your ath­le­tes are impro­ving over time. The tracking data collec­ted during trai­ning can also be used as part of ath­le­tic per­for­mance dia­gnostics. This pro­ce­du­re is refer­red to as in-situ tes­ting” and is just one of the many advan­ta­ges of KIN­EXON sports technology.

Die Vorteile von Player Tracking

Die Verfolgung von Spielern kann Trainern helfen, Schwachstellen oder Stärken ihrer Spieler zu erkennen.

Some of the bene­fits of play­er tracking include:

  • logistics
  • fle­xi­bi­li­ty
  • real con­di­ti­ons
  • return to the game
  • scou­ting

To under­stand them bet­ter, let’s take a clo­ser look at the bene­fits they can offer you and your staff in each sport.


Logistics

No addi­tio­nal equip­ment is requi­red other than the instal­led sys­tem. In addi­ti­on, no addi­tio­nal space and no pre­pa­ra­ti­on time is requi­red — the dia­gnostics take place auto­ma­ti­cal­ly during a trai­ning ses­si­on. During a regu­lar trai­ning ses­si­on, all exer­ci­ses rele­vant for dia­gnostics can be fil­te­red out.

Addi­tio­nal Pro: No addi­tio­nal bur­den on play­ers and staff when per­forming per­for­mance dia­gnostics.

fle­xi­bi­li­ty

With KIN­EXON it is pos­si­ble to ana­ly­ze many dif­fe­rent sport-spe­ci­fic exer­ci­ses in dif­fe­rent sports: jumps in hand­ball , run­ning per­for­mance in soc­cer and sprints in ice hockey — just to name a few examp­les. This hap­pens ful­ly auto­ma­ti­cal­ly through the dis­play in clear dash­boards. It also allows com­pa­ri­son of play­ers, posi­ti­ons and team values.

real con­di­ti­ons

Alt­hough in situ tests do not pro­vi­de ful­ly stan­dar­di­zed data, the results collec­ted under real con­di­ti­ons are much more mea­ning­ful. After all, you don’t want to know what the play­er can do under opti­mal con­di­ti­ons in the test lab, but how he per­forms on the field, on the pitch or on the lawn. You can also see whe­ther the trai­ning is effec­ti­ve for an ath­le­te or whe­ther the per­for­mance is sta­gna­ting or even declining.

Retur­ning to the game

It is easy to check whe­ther a play­er is rea­dy to come back from inju­ry by com­pa­ring base­li­ne pro­fi­le data. This makes it easy to assess how far the ath­le­te is from their per­so­nal best and which spe­ci­fic are­as may need more trai­ning.

Scou­ting


The com­pa­ri­son of the data does not only have to be done for two trai­ning ses­si­ons of the same ath­le­te. Pro­files from in situ dia­gnostics can also be used in scou­ting to com­pa­re young play­ers with pro­fes­sio­nals. Here the objec­ti­ve tracking data sup­ports the sub­jec­ti­ve impres­si­ons of the trai­ners.

Over­all, the play­er tracking tech­no­lo­gy pro­vi­desvalu­able insights and bene­fits that can signi­fi­cant­ly impact ath­le­te per­for­mance, coa­ching stra­te­gies, and the over­all expe­ri­ence for fans and sta­ke­hol­ders in the sports industry.

The eva­lua­ti­on of the per­for­mance dia­gnostics with KIN­EXON could take place every six mon­ths or quar­ter­ly and be clear­ly visua­li­zed in a dash­board. In com­bi­na­ti­on with, for examp­le, health checks, ques­ti­onn­aires, etc., a holistic dia­gnostic pic­tu­re is created.

In short: Spor­ting per­for­mance dia­gnostics with KIN­EXON PER­FORM LPS means litt­le effort and com­pa­ra­ble per­for­mance data under real conditions.
