Challenge

A sports innovation team wanted to test whether match footage could yield useful tactical signals without relying entirely on manual coding.

What we did

We prototyped video processing, player and event detection, and analytical views that let specialists inspect candidate tactical patterns and model uncertainty.

Outcomes

  • The prototype surfaces experimental movement and event signals

  • Analysts can inspect model outputs alongside source footage

  • The work is exploratory and carries no production claim
