TRACAB Image Tracking
The TRACAB Image Tracking System™ uses image processing technology to identify the position of all moving objects in a sports arena in real-time. The outcome of the analysis is a data feed with X, Y and Z coordinates for all objects. Data can be streamed to various visualization platforms such as broadcast graphics and second screens, and can be used to prepare comprehensive sets of performance statistics. The system is based on stereo vision technology and features two small multi-camera units.

The system features a 3-channel built-in clip recorder, as well as a keyer that allows the user to easily add virtual tied-to-surface graphics.
