AI in Indian Sports: The Rise of Real-Time Runner Tracking Technology
India’s sports technology landscape is rapidly advancing as artificial intelligence and real-time analytics reshape the future of endurance events. With the increasing popularity of marathons, cycling competitions, and long-distance races across the country, event organisers are now prioritising more than just race results. Modern sporting events require advanced live timing, live tracking, spot timing, and intelligent sports timing solutions that enhance both athlete performance and overall race management. In earlier years, traditional RFID-based sports timing systems were primarily used to record finish-line results. Although these systems delivered accurate timing data, the expectations of runners and organisers have evolved significantly. Today, AI-powered automated timing systems are capable of collecting, processing, and analysing large volumes of athlete data instantly. This technological evolution is transforming how endurance events are monitored, managed, and experienced in...
