pioneer of sports performance analysis, announced a partnership with European Broadcast

TIM, the highest tier of Italian football.
STATS’ partnership with EBD, a leader in sport services and audio visual content production, will
see the broadcast and media partners of Serie A TIM gain access to a broad set of dynamic in-game
presentations, comprehensive statistics and coaching tools through SportVU player tracking
technology. SportVU utilizes optical tracking technology to collect positioning data for the ball and
players in real-time. This live information is translated into enhanced data graphics for a richer
viewing experience including team and player possession, player run comparisons, and player heat
maps.
SportVU’s player and ball tracking information will be integrated into EBD’s broadcast graphic
enrichment tools and utilized by Serie A TIM’s broadcast and media partners. These dramatic
viewing enhancements will create new and interactive advertising platforms for sponsors.
“SportVU and EBD will enhance the viewing experience for fans of Serie A TIM,” said Federico
Winer, Director of Business Development, Europe at STATS. “Innovative graphics, 3D simulations,
player perspective visuals, 360 degree views and side-by-side comparisons are ready-made for
broadcast graphics and match trackers for web and mobile.”
Prozone, purchased by STATS in May 2015, will focus on the delivery of data and performance
insights to Lega Serie A product and to the clubs. Ensuring the delivery of technical and physical
data from every Serie A TIM game, Prozone will provide clubs with physical reports and access to
its MATCHVIEWER, and KINETIC platforms to enable detailed analysis across the complete
training and matchday cycle.
“Prozone’s advanced solutions will enable Serie A TIM teams to access a wealth of Performance
data,” said Antoine David, Prozone’s General Manager for Southern Europe. “Delivering advanced
performance information, the data provided by our solutions will support a more objective
approach to team and player analysis, giving coaches and sports scientists the ability to monitor all
aspects of the team and player performance.”
In addition, Prozone and EBD will design benchmarking reports, based on the needs of each club,
highlighting the key physical trends from Serie A TIM to support detailed longitudinal analysis,
with all information being stored on EBD’s central database.
“EBD has teamed with STATS in order to establish a powerful strategic partnership,” said Matteo
Brambilla, Strategy & New Business Director at European Broadcast Development. “Working
together, our mission is to create innovative viewing and analysis experiences for Serie A TIM
