It’s no longer a simple matter of strapping on your boots and running out for a game. Sports data science is a new and growing field. People with a passion for sport bring data science to bear for performance improvement and enhanced player management with lower injuries.

Data is typically collected across a huge range of sensors, GPS trackers, cameras and video feeds of the games.

Seagate and NVIDIA are at the forefront of this movement to store these massive data sets, and then to apply AI to gain insights from the data.

We are pleased to share this great video from Seagate, meet John Young from Melbourne, a Sports Data Analyst.
