RII Sport Technology
RII Sports Technology takes the video analysis from other cooperation's such as Hudl and turns them into the most in-depth and insightful football analysis data around. RII Sports Technology's GameBreak Scan works in the same way as many other competitor analysis tools, but rather than sending them video you send them the data you receive from a company like Hudl. The GameBreak Scan will then take the data and find more advanced and in-depth tendencies based on things such as field position, formation, side of the field etc. to predict with a very high percentage the next play that will be run. Hudl analysis is usually able to predict plays with 10 to maybe 20 percent certainty but with the GameBreak Scan you can increase these percentages to 60, 70, 80, 90, and sometimes even 100 percent certainty. Their other products, the RII Sports Dashboard and GameDay Scout are great tools for interacting with game film or collecting live in game data.
