COMPETE Vision on a New Level: Refined for Faster Insights

The latest COMPETE Vision update streamlines the entire performance analysis workflow, from camera setup to automated reporting. Faster uploads, improved player identification, automated court calibration, and smarter player assignment help coaches spend less time managing technology and more time turning objective data into coaching decisions. 

Product Update

Every minute spent handling equipment, uploading video, assigning players, or troubleshooting technology is a minute coaches aren’t spending with their athletes. 

That’s why the latest COMPETE Vision update focuses on one goal: removing friction from the entire data collection and performance analysis workflow. From camera setup to automated reports, we’ve streamlined every step so coaches can move from recording a session to actionable insights faster than ever before. The result is a COMPETE Vision experience that’s easier to operate, delivers more reliable statistics, and lets your staff focus on what matters most: coaching. 

The value of performance data depends on how quickly coaches can use it. Our focus with this release was to shorten the path from data collection to data delivery by removing friction across every step of the workflow – from capturing a session to automatically delivering reports.”

Simpler Setup, So Any Staff Member Can Run It

Technology should support your coaching process, not depend on the one staff member who knows how the camera works.” Guided camera setup and simplified calibration make it easier than ever to capture high-quality data consistently. Whether it’s a coach, analyst, student assistant, or intern running the system, sessions can be set up quickly and confidently with minimal training. 

That means one less operational challenge on busy training days and greater confidence that every session is captured successfully. 

Faster Uploads, Faster Answers

Once the session ends, getting data into the platform shouldn’t become the next bottleneck. We’ve completely rebuilt the upload pipeline between the Labpano camera and COMPETE Vision platform, making transfers significantly more reliable while achieving up to 4x faster upload times. 

Combined with automated court calibration, coaches can move from recording a practice session to actionable performance insights significantly faster. That means less time waiting for results and more time reviewing performance, preparing the next session, and helping athletes improve.

More Reliable Player Identification

Reliable performance insights start with reliable tracking. We’ve further refined our player identification engine to deliver even more consistent athlete tracking throughout every session. By maintaining player identities more accurately from start to finish, COMPETE Vision produces cleaner, more reliable performance data coaches can trust. 

For coaches, that means greater confidence in every insight, allowing them to focus on coaching decisions rather than validating the underlying data. 

Faster, More Accurate Player Assignment

We’ve streamlined the player assignment workflow by combining more accurate player tracking with an enhanced Player Suggestions algorithm. Assigning player tracks is now faster and more intuitive, as returning athletes are automatically recognized and recommended for assignment. The result is fewer manual corrections and a smoother workflow for coaches and performance staff.

With less time spent cleaning data, coaches can focus sooner on interpreting performance insights and supporting their athletes.

Automated Reports, Delivered Directly To Your Phone

Performance analysis shouldn’t end with generating statistics, it should make those insights easy to share. As soon as processing is complete, Session Reports, Weekly Reports, and Individual Player Reports are automatically delivered to coaches and athletes. There’s no need to export files, send emails, or manually distribute reports. 

Coaches gain immediate visibility into team trends and individual performance, while athletes receive personalized feedback without creating additional work for staff. 

Two reports coaches rely on most include: 

  • Shot Area Map – Visualizes where shots originate and how efficiently they convert across different areas of the court. 
  • Player Profile – Combines key performance metrics into a clear overview of an athlete’s strengths, development areas, and progress over time. 

Instead of spending time managing reports, coaches can spend more time discussing the insights with their athletes. 

At a Glance

  • Up to 4× faster video uploads from the Labpano camera 
  • Up to 3× faster from recording a session to actionable statistics (with Labpano camera setup) 
  • Automated court calibration 
  • Improved player identification 
  • Faster player assignment with Player Suggestions 
  • Automatic delivery of Session, Weekly, and Player Reports 

What's Coming Next

Even Better Shot Tracking 
Building on an already robust shot detection and tracking engine, we’re further refining our algorithms to handle even the most challenging situations, including contested shots, multi-player and ball interactions, and temporary occlusions. The result is even more accurate and consistent individual and team shooting statistics, giving coaches greater confidence in every performance insight. 

Offline Upload Support 
No reliable internet connection at your venue? We’ve got you covered. 

An upcoming offline workflow ensures you can capture every session, regardless of network availability. Simply export the recording from the Labpano camera to a USB drive, connect it to your laptop, and upload the session through the KINEXON app once you’re back online. This gives coaches and performance staff a dependable backup workflow, ensuring unreliable gym networks never stand between data collection and actionable performance insights. 

More Insights. More Time Coaching. Less Time Managing Technology.

Every update in this release was designed around a simple principle: remove unnecessary work from the coaching workflow. Whether it’s setting up the camera, processing video, assigning players, or distributing reports, COMPETE Vision now gets you from session to insight faster, with greater confidence in the data and less manual effort along the way. 

The result isn’t just a faster platform. It’s more time for coaches to review performance, communicate with athletes, and make informed decisions when they matter most. If you’re already using COMPETE Vision, now is the perfect time to experience the latest improvements. And if you’re exploring camera-based performance analysis for the first time, there’s never been an easier way to turn a single sideline camera into objective, actionable performance insights.
