Asia University Tennis: STADIUM TUBE Flexi Installation

~The video of tournaments and daily practice and use data to enhance instruction~

NTTSportict Co., Ltd. (CEO: Nakamura Masatoshi; hereinafter referred to as NTTSportict) has installed an automatic sports video system called “STADIUM TUBE Flexi” (see attached) at Asia University Hinode Campus Tennis Court (1449-1 Hirai, Hinode-cho, Nishitama-gun, Tokyo).

“STADIUM TUBE Flexi” is a shooting streaming solution that utilizes a fixed PTZ camera. It supports filming and streaming of competitions where fixed-angle footage is required, such as table tennis, tennis, and judo.

In the future, we plan to have the Asia University tennis club use AI cameras in daily practice and tournaments, and use the automatically filmed footage for guidance to strengthen the team.
 
NTTSportict will work further to collaborate and provide the creation of an environment and new system using video to strengthen the tennis club at the University of Asia.

■Introduction process
The Asia University tennis club was looking for a system that allows users to automatically shoot footage, store it in the cloud, and check the data at any time as a means of data analysis during their daily practice, and the company was interested in “STADIUM TUBE,” so NTTSportict introduced Flexi as a solution that can accommodate tennis shooting, and this introduction has been realized.

Comment on Women’s Coach Nagakubo
Of the 10 hard coats, three of them have permanent Flexi.
The club’s policy was to develop a culture in which players themselves analyze themselves from an objective perspective and deepen their learning.
So, while I was looking for a system that would allow me to accumulate video data continuously and efficiently, I came across Flexi. I’m also satisfied with the ability to record videos from a high-level perspective.
The competition footage is first shared with the players and then they have them watched it themselves.
I hope that they will be able to analyze services success rates and positioning by course, as well as be able to put into words why they were good about their play while watching the video.
In the future, I would like to continue to film not only the tournament but also the daily practice, and see how the accumulation of that data will have on the players’ awareness.
