Pythian creates AI opportunity roadmap to help ECB effectively analyze cricket footage on Google Cloud Platform
See how Pythian used Google Cloud, machine learning, and AI to allow the English Cricket Board (ECB) to analyze massive amounts of match video far beyond the capabilities of the human eye.
The England and Wales Cricket Board is the single national governing body for all cricket in England and Wales, headquartered at Lord’s Cricket Ground in London. ECB was looking at leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) to analyze recorded cricket matches video footage.
ECB wanted to be able to analyze more matches than their manual process allowed and be more consistent in the analysis. They turned to Pythian to establish an AI roadmap to automate video labeling and expand recording footage analysis beyond the capabilities of the human eye.
