EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The variety of tools available to track athletic performance, both on and prime examples of this trend. However out of this a major challenge for off the field, is only increasing. The growth in tools is also matched by high performance coaches, data scientists and trainers is aggregating the depth of data that these tools can generate. The widespread adoption and integrating all these different data streams to form actionable of performance and recovery wearables such as WHOOP and Oura are insights.

Prior to this David spent nine seasons with the Seattle Sounders. While with the Sounders, the team won MLS Cup (2016), the U.S. Open Cup four times, and made the MLS Playoffs in nine consecutive years.

David also serves on the Advisory Board of Sports Innovation Texas a new initiative realising the potential of Austin and Central Texas to be a leading global hub for sports innovation and technology.

Key challenges: What are the key challenges Trends: What major trends have emerged you’re facing and what role can technology in the last 6-12 months in the application of play in solving them? technology, digital and data?

Data aggregation and integration. We’re getting an increasing number of Optical tracking is still on an accelerating expansion into the sports data streams from different tech so being able to merge the different data performance industry with companies like Second Spectrum being used from all the different providers into one place and then make sense of it in the NBA and MLS. This ability of is still the biggest challenge. There’s a huge role that tech and data can computer vision to be able to provide player tracking data using a normal have in solving a problem of its own creation. TV feed is really interesting. It’s more than just aggregated running stats now, it’s quantifying things like defensive and offensive metrics. Innovative Use-Cases: What is the best or Applying computer vision to a normal broadcast feed could be a potential game changer in how we’re quantifying and looking at the game and most innovative application of technology improvements. you’ve seen in the industry this year? Improvements: What technology would you I thought it was really innovative how the Oura Ring was used to systematically track HRV (Heart-Rate Variability) for illness detection like to see developed or adopted over the next for everyone that went into the NBA bubble. There’s WHOOP and some one to two years? of the other HRV companies like Omegawave and Firstbeat. But the work that Oura has done, especially in the last 12 months, to create awareness EMG (Electromyography - electrodiagnostic medicine technique for around their product I think has really opened up everyone’s eyes to the evaluating and recording the electrical activity produced by skeletal benefits of HRV. muscles) is going to come to the forefront more. The industry is looking at activity within the muscles and realizing there is something there but You can see on Twitter weekly comparisons oF night-time versus daytime we’re still not at that phase where we’re 100% sure of what it’s telling it HRV, WHOOP versus Oura, and what’s more meaningful. We now know and how to best use it. So I’m interested to see how the application of what happens to someone’s heart rate over time, HRV and heart rates, EMG together with GPS and other performance tracking systems. I think we know over the course of a night and the difference of HRV and resting that’s when we’ll be able to get the best out of it. heart rate at night and sleeping six hours versus eight hours versus nine hours. Personally, I’ve started using it every day and I find that it had definitely created this awareness around night-time HRV for the first time. That has been super interesting to work with and something I’ve seen in the last 12 months more than I ever have before.

STUART MORGAN LEAD MACHINE LEARNING, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND DATA INNOVATION AUSTRALIAN INSTITUTE OF SPORT Stuart Morgan currently leads the AIS Applied Technology and Innovation’s Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and Data Innovation department. Stuart completed his PhD in sensory neuroscience at Swinburne University of Technology (SUT), in 1999, and became a Research Fellow at SUT in 2000. He worked as a performance analyst at the Victorian Institute of Sport for 6 years, developing next-generation game analysis techniques, before joining the AIS in 2007.

Stuart has worked with numerous high profile international teams including the Australian Hockey team at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. His current work focuses on research and development in computer vision for sports, including using data mining and machine learning techniques to gain competition and training insights.

Key challenges: What are the key challenges And in instances where it’s not possible to practically or efficiently, or in a timely way, gather that information, then that’s the go-ahead for us to you’re facing and what role can technology invest in or develop technology. So the key challenge in my mind is by a play in solving them? significant margin, understanding that dynamic with the coaches and the sports and finding ways to inform the coaches in practical and actionable For us, I think the key challenges are not so much technical. It’s been ways without overwhelming them with new data or irrelevant data. such an exponential rate of capability growth from a technical point of view, that the real challenge from our perspective has been a human challenge. It’s been understanding the relationship and the role of technology and data in high performance sport, and particularly with Innovative Use-Cases: What is the best or coaches and athletes. most innovative application of technology you’ve seen in the industry this year? I think technology, certainly the kind of technology we’re interested in, has its natural place in answering questions, meaningful questions that I think probably the most innovative areas that we’re focusing on is our coaches, athletes and sports scientists have. Rather than necessarily really the mobilization of AI drivers. So in particular mobile apps, we providing additional data beyond what was already being collected. So leveraged the new neural compute engines and the new mobile AI- we’re primary interested in what is a coach’s game plan; How do they based computational resources in smart devices, that’s a particular see themselves manipulating their opponent? How do they seem to see area of interest for us and we’re certainly working in iOS space. We’ve themselves preparing optimally for certain range of conditions? And been focusing on the latest offerings from Apple in high quality camera, those game plans are the driver for the technology that we’re interested high speed camera chip sets that are capable of doing quite fast deep- in. learning inference, and then neatly packaging that inside of a mobile device that has a convenient user interface.

“This whole idea of being able I think an important feature for us is that we use video a lot. High to capture performance in performance sport in particular, and it’s not always possible or practical to do our computation on the cloud. So we need to figure out ways of a training environment with deploying the deep learning and the AI-based projects that we work on pitch-side or court-side or pool-side or track-side. So we’re certainly multiple camera systems and making use of the innovations in the mobile computing space. Tony Scofield who runs our software development team has been doing a lot having some kind of intelligence of work with Google at the moment with some of their edge computing capabilities, and we’re also building our own Nvidia based systems that embedded in it is a really unmet enclose a camera and a high-performance computing device, that is need for sport.” modular and portable.

Trends: What major trends have emerged processing space at that granular level. It’s not something we’ve done a lot of work in ourselves, but it’s certainly one of those trends in, AI that’s in the last 6-12 months in the application of really turning heads. technology, digital and data? I’m pretty excited by some of the development and wearables. We’re Improvements: What technology would you obviously doing a lot of work with Apple at the moment and their Apple health platform and the lack of in-person training due to the pandemic like to see developed or adopted over the next has definitely accelerated that side of things. It’s certainly useful for one to two years? a whole range of levels for us from athlete management and athlete wellbeing through to explicitly high performance and sports analytics If there were commercial investments in integrated camera systems, kinds of applications. So there’s certainly development in the wearable we’d be really excited. One of the really prevailing needs for sport is space that I think is an interesting and ongoing training. multi-camera integrated systems that have smart camera rays that have the capacity for real time inference, a good user experience, minimal As we spend a lot of time on vision, we do a lot of counting of events. human input and minimal human processing. This whole idea of being So another trend that has really continued I think in the last 12 months able to capture performance in a training environment with multiple has been the increasing sophistication of platforms that are capable camera systems and having some kind of intelligence embedded in it is a of understanding things that are happening in video. Whether it’s really unmet need for sport. competition or training, focusing on things like counting swimming strokes, or counting high jumps, or counting javelin throws and We still have sports that package-post hard drives from one side of the measuring the features of performance, I’m seeing an increasing number country to the other. And it’s, it’s still kind of the standard method for of commercial offerings in that space. sharing video data. And we certainly will need over the next five years have some kind of national video data repository at two levels, one in One of the big trends generally has been in natural language processing. a, in a capacity where sports can share vision, and secondly, where we We’re getting to see a really good exploitation of these new architectures can explore it and harvest. So, that’s the AI piece, integrating some kind in sport. And it’ll be interesting to see where clever startups might take of inference capability over large scale vision. And currently we’re not some of these ideas and create a real game changer in the sports data aware of any commercial providers that offer that, but we don’t see too many technical barriers to doing it either.
