Intro

70% of All NBA Teams Rely on Our Performance Tracking and Tactical Analysis Technology

Our smart sports tracking solution, KINEXON PERFORM, offers basketball coaches the most precise player performance data and tactical insights on the market. More than 70% of NBA coaches use our live data, generated by the leading UWB network technology, to guide their players through practices and games.

Get every movement on the floor translated into valuable position, motion and physiological data in real time! Algorithms transform these into insights about performance, injury prevention, return-to-play and tactics.

The Top 3 Benefits for Basketball Coaches

Basketball is an intense, dynamic sport, with a high game frequency. This leads to a very high risk of injury. That is why KINEXON PERFORM addresses the three dimensions of performance improvement with its smart sports tracking solution.

1 | Improve Performance

KINEXON PERFORM helps to improve strength, speed, endurance and flexibility of every player by visualizing performance and its trend on a high granularity. Smart algorithms deliver exclusive metrics on volume (e.g. distance, activity time) or intensity (e.g. distance/minute, number of sprints) of practices and games. Analyze metrics over time, compare to peer groups and push personal strengths and eliminate weaknesses.

2 | Reduce Injuries

With 82 regular season games per NBA season, teams are often forced to play back-to-back nights. The risk of injury increases game by game. With KINEXON PERFORM we found a way to reduce the risk of non-contact injuries. In collaboration with leading experts and scientists, we developed smart metrics that detect hints of overloading. KINEXON PERFORM makes it easy for coaches to keep an eye on the condition of each individual player and protect their health.

KINEXON motion profiles allow you to compare performances and movements

3 | Return-to-Play

KINEXON PERFORM provides support even when injuries cannot be prevented. Getting a player back on the floor is crucial to a team’s success. However, if the athlete is not 100 percent healthy it could lead to a second, sometimes more serious injury. Our motion profiles compare the performance and movement of recently injured athletes with their performance levels when they are at full health.

The Next Level of Smart Tactical Analysis by KINEXON PERFORM

Our smart performance tracking solution doesn’t stop at performance analysis. Thanks to our pioneering integration of a UWB sensor into the ball, our precise position data can also be used for profound tactical analysis.

Benefit from the first ball tracking solution on the market!

With KINEXON PERFORM’s ball tracking technology, you are able to track player movement and ball movement at the same time. By combining the generated data, it enables coaches to measure, analyze, explain and improve the offensive positioning with the ball and defensive positioning off the ball. This service runs in real time.

Choose Your Tactical Analysis Package!

Precise position data is the key to profound tactical analytics. KINEXON offers two types of tactical analysis.

02 Advanced Tactical Metrics

Player Tracking Only

Even the best coaches can’t possibly have their eyes on every player on the court. But KINEXON PERFORM does! It allows coaches to get an overview of how players are moving on the court and whether they are in the most effective positions. This helps to analyze tactics and give instant feedback.

Player Tracking and Ball Tracking

Complete tactical analysis without restrictions works only if you also know how the ball moves on the field. That’s why our advanced tactical metrics are linkable to our ball tracking technology. This allows you to see how the position of the ball is in relation to the players in order to make better tactical analyses.
