New Technology Deal Will Include Added Analytic Technology For Men’s and Women’s Basketball and Broadcast Enhancement Components
The Big 12 Conference today announces a new multiyear partnership with ShotTracker to install and operate its technology for all men’s and women’s basketball programs. ShotTracker utilizes a revolutionary sports technology that captures rich performance data via sensors, providing statistics and analytics with sub-second latency.
"The technology ShotTracker provides via autonomous, low-latency data collection is second to none, and it will be the standard going forward," said Big 12 Executive Associate Commissioner Jeff Jackson. "The technology provides enhancements for all of our men’s and women’s basketball programs.”
“The partnership with the Big 12 Conference continues our upward growth not just in college basketball, but across the sports technology landscape,” said ShotTracker Co-Founder and President Davyeon Ross. “ShotTracker’s low latency data benefits coaches and teams while providing opportunities to drive production efficiency and revenue opportunities for additional partners. This includes utilizing the data to drive remote cameras along with expanded data capabilities to enhance the broadcasts and create more valuable content for the next season and beyond.
ShotTracker’s patented technology tracks data in three parts: a ShotTracker-enabled ball, sensors on players’ jerseys, and court sensors that map the court in 3D. Data is processed through the company’s proprietary algorithm, and can also be used to enhance broadcast productions by providing additional statistical data and to automate camera operations from remote locations.
