Tennis glorified by IBM
The tennis season kickstarts in January with the first grand
slam of the year, Australian Open. People from around the globe are quiet
enthusiastic about this event. Stars like Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic and
Rafael Nadal are all geared up for the open.
To add cherry to this event, IBM has introduced a smart and
innovative way to watch and enjoy the game, SLAMTRACKER. IBM uses real-time
analytics tools to give players and spectators added insight during grand slam tournaments.
A point-by-point summary is indicated after the conclusion of each and every
point. Live commentary, exclusive interviews of players, highlights of the
match and exotic points-all is included in SLAMTRACKER.
The SLAMTRACKER works on the much talked CLOUD TECHNOLOGY. The
data received through match umpire’s scorecard is directly shown on this
SLAMTRACKER using the cloud sources provided by IBM.
Not only Australian Open, but other tennis grand slams have
shown keen interest in this latest technology. Alan Flack, IBM's Wimbledon client and programme
executive, says: "The predictive analytics technology and the exciting
match information available online and on mobile achieves
the additional global penetration for Wimbledon that the organizers want and it gets more young people interested in the sport."
The
same technology is being used to gain an advantage in the business world, too.
The technology collects data about every point, game, set and match, and the
same tools are being used by businesses to gain additional insight into their
industry, as well as their customers' preferences and habits. It is helping
them retain and gain a competitive advantage.
In
all, IBM by introducing SLAMTRACKER have enhanced the sports enthusiasts’
experience and we, at team MINIITWOLD salute and respect IBM for such
innovations and hope to see more every time.
