PlaySight CEO Chen Sachar Makes Smart Courts to Provide Consumer Sports Analytics
Sports and athletic competition have been a pastime of choice for human beings for literally thousands of years. With all our technological advancements, people have never had more opportunity to improve their skills than they do today. Competitors can track their health and fitness with countless mobile devices and smartphone apps. They can also view HD video to study both their own performances and the performances of others on their phone, tablet, computer, or large screen TV almost any time they want. Cool person in technology Chen Sachar has introduced yet another way that players can use technology to improve their game—real-time analytics and 3D visualizations.
Sachar’s company PlaySight has created what they refer to as “Smart Courts” for tennis players to track their performances in newly detailed and insightful ways. Each of these courts records every aspect of a player’s performance while they practice or compete. Sachar’s courts provide people with serve speeds, distances and a number of other statistics that shows the true level of their skill. Sachar’s courts also record every session and break down games into “events”. Each event explains specific player patterns and behaviors that might otherwise go unnoticed. Users can even create 3D visualizations of their actions and analyze them in more detail on the PlaySight web platform once practice ends. Anyone who has trouble on the PlaySight website will want online tech support for help accessing his or her data.
When users create a PlaySight membership, they receive a membership card that gives them access to any Smart Courts located around the country. Any time a player uses one of Sachar’s courts for a practice session, the court records all their practice data and saves it online in the cloud for later review. Players can access their entire statistical history whenever they want to view how their performance has changed or improved. If users suspect their data is not uploading properly to the PlaySight website, they may want to contact a cloud computer support specialist.
Sachar’s history in technology is with training and simulation programs. He has been the R&D manager for SimTech Advanced Training and Simulation in the past as well as the head of training and simulation for Ness Technologies. This cool person’s background translates perfectly to his role as PlaySight CEO, given his expertise in the technologies that company works with regularly.
