Didn't think about this! Thanks for this idea! It sounds like it could be extremely useful for referees.


I'm focusing on amateur leagues and amateur teams.

In fact, I'm an amateur player and I'm in a team that plays every single week. We collect the videos on our own and process them to have our analysis and make decisions. It's really low cost since we use our smartphones and don't need the analysis in real-time.

By now we're building a platform where you upload your videos and access your analysis, in contrast to others, we are not focusing on video recording.


By now, we're only capable of processing videos with consistent camera angle throughout the video, I believe trace cameras change based on players' positions, right?

I'm interested in adjusting our systems and make it work with trace cameras.

If you want send me a message and we can work to generate some data from your video. It'll help me a lot to improve Futvis.

I'm so sorry for this, it was my bad. On the website, there is a link to the demo people can try but it is not exactly the link I posted.

This is the link: https://futvis.streamlit.app/. Sorry for not having it accessible to anyone. Unfortunately, it is a button inside the website and I misunderstood the rules.

Again, I apologize for this inconvenience.


It's ok! Once you have something that people can try on their own videos, you'd be welcome to do a Show HN about it. Good luck with your work!


Thanks! Well flask, streamlit, plotly, opencv, docker, a trained object detection model (Faster RCNN or YOLO, there is not much difference). Google Cloud Run, some storage services on GCP, full python, react for front-end, and that's all.


It doesn't work real time yet, the analysis is made after the video is completed. But it'd be a good feature to add.

Didn't considered gambling, how it would be? It'd be ike generating win or goals probabilities per minute?


Thank you so much for your insightful comment. I genuinely appreciate the time you took to share your knowledge and experiences.

I'll take your advice about keeping this project as a passion rather than being desperate for profits seriously. Certainly, I'll need to face several issues, such as budget constraints, data, and process issues, like your anecdote about Yaya Toure's nearly supersonic shot.

All you mentioned will help a lot to make it thrive, especially the opportunities you found in high school football.

I'm grateful for the guidance you've provided to me. Thanks again!


Great! You can contact me at this email: * futvissoftware@gmail.com

By now I'm providing free soccer video analysis in exchange for feedback.

Yes, it's possible to use videos of the same game from different angles, of course.

These are two examples of videos we've successfully processed: https://youtu.be/SxGV5W5Ka7M?si=kYNIe3tzoFm_-DKw https://youtu.be/HUUcLKZKmfg?si=Xpcj4AtK5wOZwMot

While these are distinct games, if they happen to be the same, the outcomes are unlikely to vary significantly.


Great, thanks!

I'll send you some requirements for the video. I'm providing soccer video analysis at no cost in exchange for feedback.


Ah bummer. Just got this reply...

"To kick things off, all you need to do is share a link to your video on Google Drive, OneDrive, or YouTube, and we'll promptly create a personalized analysis for you at no cost. In return, we kindly ask for your constructive feedback to help us enhance the Futvis experience."

We work with little ones and cannot just send over videos without their parents' consent.


I understand. Since we're still in the process of building the platform, this is the only way to generate insights for you currently. However, in a few weeks, the platform will be completed, allowing you to use it on your own while maintaining ownership of your videos. I'll send you an email when it's done!


Certainly, as we simply gather players' positions and generate stats accordingly. The number of players on the pitch doesn't affect the process.

I can make a video analysis for you at no cost, in exchange for feedback.
