FOR-A To Debut Offline AI Solution For Sports Broadcasting

News Image
FOR-A has announced the European debut of viztrick AiDi, a groundbreaking and intuitive on-device AI solution that operates without internet connectivity. The technology provides real-time video analysis with low latency, and is set to revolutionise sports broadcasting and live production workflows with its ability to enhance rather than replace human creativity.

viztrick AiDi transforms sports coverage through intelligent automation that enhances rather than replaces human creativity. The system's player tracking capabilities enable dynamic commentary by allowing operators to draw directly on screen whilst automatically following moving players or objects. Real-time speed quantification visually emphasises the brilliance of athletic performance, whilst distance and angle analysis tools highlight player skills instantly.

The system's facial recognition technology enables smooth presentation flow by instantly displaying player profiles without interrupting match coverage. Even more impressive, viztrick AiDi can recognise scoreboards and automatically input scores faster and more accurately than manual operation, making match flow easier for viewers to follow. Production appeal is maximised through high-precision video analysis, all processed locally on a single PC.

"viztrick AiDi represents a fundamental shift in how AI can enhance sports broadcasting," says Fabio Varolo, Sales Manager, FOR-A Europe. "By operating entirely on-device without internet dependency, it provides broadcast-grade reliability whilst delivering intelligent automation that empowers creative teams to focus on storytelling rather than routine tasks."

At IBC2025, FOR-A will demonstrate viztrick AiDi's sports package with a live football-focused showcase featuring drawing tools (brush, arrow, and number), 2.5D ground drawing, comprehensive motion data (speed, distance, and distance/angle calculations), face recognition capabilities, and automatic score graphics generation.

The European debut of viztrick AiDi reinforces FOR-A's commitment to practical AI solutions that deliver immediate operational benefits. Unlike cloud-based alternatives, the system's on-device processing ensures consistent performance regardless of internet connectivity, making it ideal for outside broadcast environments and remote production scenarios.

Visit FOR-A at Stand 2.B53 during IBC2025 to experience viztrick AiDi's transformative capabilities firsthand and discover how intelligent automation can elevate your sports broadcasting operations.
