NBA Tech
The technology was originally developed to track missiles. Now, SportVU
systems hang from the catwalks of 10 NBA arenas, tiny webcams that
silently track each player as they shoot, pass, and run across the
court, recording each and every move 25 times a second. SportVU can tell
you not just Kevin Durant’s shooting average, but his shooting average
after dribbling one vs. two times, or his shooting average with a
defender three feet away vs. five feet away. SportVU can actually
consider both factors at once, plus take into account who passed him the
ball, how many minutes he’d been on the court, and how many miles he’d
run that game already...
