Week 5 – Continuing With Dart fish (tagging)

In today session we continued looking into using dart fish, last time we used dart fish we focused on the analyse section. This week in dart fish we focused on the tagging section, The tagging feature in dart fish is very useful as allows coaches and sports scientist or analysts to upload a clip and create essentially a way to tally down what happens in the game.

We used a video of football today and created a panel with dart fish under the category Key features, this included passing, tackling, Shooting and saves. we did this buy clicking on the panel button and setting up different panels that we can then click when we see that specific action being performed. From the data we gathered from playing about with this feature it turns out that the game of football has far more passes then any other action followed by tackling shooting and saving.

This feature will be incredible useful as we move on with the course as i can see myself using this function for many sports that i am interested in.

The football game itself was very different from football these days as back then the standard of football was not as high as it is now. The athletes were not quite as fast nor technical as today’s athletes. There was also a very big difference in passing then any other key feature, this would be interesting to compare to more current data.
