State of the art artificial intelligence (AI) technology for football boots has been approved by FIFA for use in official matches.
The news opens the door to the first lower-limb tracking device to be worn in football games.
In 2019, Playermaker launched a new AI tracker which could be attached players’ boots to track technical and physical performance data.
The information ranges from time in possession, technical balance, kicking velocities, speed, distance, acceleration and change of directions.
It will enable players and coaches to analyse unique skills during training sessions and matches with the aims of taking the monitoring of performance data to the next level.
