Read MoreHide Full Article
DICK'S Sporting Goods, Inc. (DKS - Free Report) is quite focused on enriching services to create a seamless experience for athletes. The company is committed to digital innovation. In the latest development, DKS’ GameChanger app has launched Film Room, which is an AI-powered video analysis tool for youth basketball and volleyball. Currently, the feature is available within the GameChanger app on iOS and Android.
Let’s delve deeper.
More Details on DKS’ Latest Launch
GameChanger is a popular youth sports app for live streaming, scheduling, statistics and scorekeeping. The new feature automatically removes downtime in game footage, reducing the video hours into coachable moments. This helps users to save time, thereby focusing mainly on the impactful game without the unnecessary footage. The feature also helps in leveling the playing field while making valued insights accessible to the youth sports community everywhere.
Film Room enables coaches to mark and annotate, while sharing the game footage with athletes, their families and staff. The latest launch is built on the success of AutoStream, which is another AI feature launched ahead of the 2023 season. AutoStream, which powered almost 25% of the entire GameChanger basketball streams in last winter, enables users on iOS to create a stationary, mobile device automatically following the action on the court.
The GameChanger app also introduced a written series on GC.com, which concentrates on the technical facets of the company's work with AI and computer vision. The first edition, which is focused on the development of Film Room and the technology powering it, is now available.
DICK’S Sporting’s GameChanger allows it to connect to athletes beyond the traditional shopping experience, thus strengthening leadership in sport. More than six million unique users engaged with GameChanger, reflecting a rise of 11% year over year in the most recent quarter. This averaged nearly 45 minutes per day on the app. The launch of Film Room highlights the company’s consistent expansion in the basketball category. GameChanger has been doing well and will continue boosting DKS’ overall results.
