Artificial Intelligence in Sports

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the capacity of machines to perform cognitive tasks such as thinking, perceiving, learning, problem solving, and decision making; it is inspired by the way humans perceive, learn, reason out, and make decisions. Artificial intelligence is a developing advanced field of study and a key research direction in the domains of sports and technology. Coach's Eye is a video analysis programme for multiple sports. Appropriate for the majority of sports requiring close-up analysis of human athletic movement, such as bat swing or jump analysis. Dartfish : Apps for video analysis are ideal for capturing skill-based video and providing immediate feedback. In Officiating AI and Machine Learning are also assisting game Judge, Referee, and umpires to make informed decisions. Cricket uses the third umpire that relies on AI-driven visualization to assist umpire in making a decision where the human eye cannot catch the minute split second or millimeter level differences. Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly important in modern sports and games. Artificial intelligence has brought about several changes in sports. AI in sports is here to stay, and it will become even more essential as the technology develops with better sensors, processors, and algorithms. Sports organizations increasingly require AI to compete at the highest levels, whether through an internal IT organization or external AI platforms.
